What happens when the functional design object meets art?18 trend-setting international and national artists and designers will be presenting their perceptions on this question with the exhibition OVERLAP. The participating artists and designers share the desire to challenge and overstep each other’s artistic domains and experiment in a cross-over field where it is no longer possible or relevant to categorize and define the objects. Thus the exhibition presents artists whose works have a close connection to commercial mechanisms and designers who produce objects which are far from the saleable, iconic and functional object. Recognisable everyday objects lose their original function and sculptural and aesthetic qualities are added. There is a conceptual expansion of concepts in which humour, irony and play are elements that seem to characterize the works.

It was a huge surprise when we discovered this morning that our upcoming solo exhibition Characterized with Maria Torp was announced on Flux - The World Biggest announcement service for contemporary art.Click on the picture and see what other shows they have announced on flux.
