OfHouses guest curated by Pedro Dionísio (Elara Fritzenwalden): HYPERMINIMAL #04 Involuntary sculpture

«Objects lose their value, whatever physical value they may have, or the values that motivated their manufacture, in favour of new meanings derived from their situation or their position. Individual pieces keep their essential unity. But there is a new sense for the whole, which does not cancel out that of the parts.

Conglomeration. Placing side by side. Piling up. Objects rubbing against each other transfer their meanings. Soft composition strategies. The order of the whole is subordinated to the integrity of the parts. Addition vs. subtraction. The design process as a continuous aggregation of materials gradually merging in a tactile way. Accumulation. Substitution.

(In the Argo, the vessel where the Argonauts travelled in search of the Golden Fleece, the pieces were gradually replaced, one by one, and in the end they had a different, new boat although with the same name and shape).»
