Ausstellung Galerie UP Project Space

Ambiguous. Between form and medium is a collection of luminous objects being exploration in the range of form and function. Balance between those two key aspects of industrial design becomes a space of inspiration and activity. Products of creative research become animated in the form of spatiaobjects which through its form and used material enable friendly coexistence with other products in the nearest environment. The scale of the objects enable the user intimacy whilst being close to the form. Light however becomes a complement to the shape, its emphasis, sometimes its initial shape becomes blurred bringing out new values. Relation of light and shadow in conjunction with the material is that ambiguity - peculiar game between form and light. Yonder game is played by the user who being in touch with the object gets to know it, through experimenting brings out another previously unknown appropriable levels.
