Back and Forth | New sculpture

Posted on April 28, 2012 by akardos

Two occupants are able to rock back and forth. Their weight, thoughts and arguments get shifted, their point of views keep moving, back and forth.. The sculpture is made of two uniform office meeting chairs upholstered in corporate institutional blue fabric. It is fully functional and can be shown and experienced in offices, public and corporate spaces.

Flip book | Sketchbook touring project

Posted on April 24, 2012 by akardos

My contribution to the NY Brooklyn Library Sketchbook project turned out as a flip book: make your choice! This playful word flip reflects on decision making, on how to manoeuver. It encourages to question choices, behaviour and routines. It will join the touring exhibition around the States and be shown in London October 2012.

Take over – proposal

Posted on February 2, 2012 by akardos

Thinking of the next occasion of working in a space this is what I’ll propose – Take Over (2012). Since I have been working with chairs, altering and animating their qualities here each chair is ‘linked’ to a collective. Variable in dimensions the work can be installed at sites like offices, public areas or become a temporarily resident in a project space.
