This exhibition is part of my PhD in Artistic Research, exploring the entangled relationship between humans and designed objects. Drawing from my furniture design background, I investigate design’s connection to resources, (over)consumption, and its influence on shaping nature and humans. My practice involves spontaneous interactions with (waste) materials, objects, and leftovers in various contexts. I invite the oldest known tool that has always been part of human life into the research: The hammer. I use it as a cultural prop to reflect on and as a companion I reflect with, asking: Could the hammer be a metaphor for design? Could the ways we use the hammer represent different design approaches?
Exhibition opening in Room 61 at KMD on Wednesday 24 September at 7pm
