see••ds is pleased to present masters of disguise as part of brompton design district 2019, an exhibition that seeks to interpret this year’s theme nature/nurture by looking at the notion of human nature.
in the current age of the anthropocene, designers need to reflect not only on their work, but also at their own identity as creative professionals. who we are and how we choose to represent ourselves to the world is deeply rooted in how we interpret the relationship to the environment. this is the essence of human nature.
masters of disguise will explore this concept by exhibiting the work of key contemporary artists/designers including jochen holz, martino gamper and sabine marcelis, and more who have been invited to design masks that address questions of identity, visibility and image.
up-and-coming names in british craft are given a platform at future heritage. it’s a space for the decorex community to discover and support collectible new artists and designers, long before the wider interior design industry. in response to a brief set before decorex, each designer works collaboratively across a diverse range of media to craft a distinctive, one-off piece that’s exhibited at the show. these pieces showcase the skills the designers use when working on commissioned pieces for both commercial and private clients. stellar additions to this year’s line-up will offer new perspectives on materiality.
