CONSTANCY & CHANGE in Korean traditional craft 2013
Milan Design Week - Triennale di Milano Milan / Italy / 2013
2
For the exhibition “Constancy & Change in Korean Traditional Craft 2013” at the Triennale of Milan on the occasion of Salone del Mobile 2013, Migliore + Servetto Architects has designed an essential set up, with a strong visual and emotional impact, able to exalt the shapes and perfection of the works of Korean masters.
It’s a neutral environment, far from all contexts, where great hanging membranes protect the objects, covering them with the thin transparency of the fabric’s weave. Above them a mix of cables and pulleys, as to recall the manufacturing tradition; below them, along two long white lightboxes, the works of art, wrapped in rays of light; on the background walls, 11 videos give back a more detailed narration, that leads to a deeper analysis of each work.
On the entrance walls, great mirroring surfaces host dynamic videos and images, generating multiple reflexes and giving space to a new unexpected dimension.
After the edition of Milan (April 2013), the exhibition has been held at the Seoul Cultural Station 284 (21 June-14 July 2013) and at the TWTC Nangang Hall in Taiwan during the Taiwan International Cultural and Creative Industry Expo 2013 (21-24 November 2013)
