“What’s the Matter?” at R & Company
In fall 2013, leading furniture and design gallery R & Company invited Kulapat and WHY to curate an exhibit in their NYC gallery. The exhibit, entitled ‘What’s the Matter?’ is an investigation into the materials and processes that shape an artist’s or designer’s work. By juxtaposing archival pieces from the collection alongside the work of contemporary designers, the show reveals an evolution of techniques, and investigates the choices a designer makes in the marrying of these two elements.
