MATERIAL DIALOGUE

Exhibition - Discussion - Masterclass
matériO Prague / Het Nieuwe Instituut
Three Czech and three Dutch designers present their innovative material solutions and help to find answers for questions of today.
Anything new always starts out as something small. Then it grows, gains strength, transforms itself and its surroundings. When ideas become reality, out attention gravitates to them. They lead us to think and discuss their meaning. Even seemingly small projects have the power to transform our perception and thinking. Those who do not absorb knowledge of new materials and technologies could find themselves side-tracked tomorrow. New materials come, hand in hand, with responsibility to our planet. It commands us to reinvent our consumption and production patterns; it has become the engine of designer’s creativity. How is represented in the projects of Czech and Dutch designers? Where does their respective approach converge and where does it diverge?
