Sampling The Future
Designers in the twenty-first century are bridging the worlds of design, technology, and science, experimenting with materials and processes to examine how we can make things in new ways or reimagine the value systems, rituals and beliefs that might define tomorrow. At the vanguard of design practice, there are architects and designers who are literally 鈥榮ampling鈥 this imagined future.
This exhibition presents a selection of new projects by some of Australia鈥檚 leading experimental and speculative designers. Highly visual 鈥 with largescale installations, thought-provoking objects, associated sound and film 鈥 this exhibition draws from the NGV Collection and features newly-commissioned works which reveal how and why design experimentation can help us to imagine the future and question today. Exhibiting designers include Alice Springs-based Elliat Rich, Sydney-based duo Kyoko Hashimoto and Guy Keulemans, and Melbourne duo Georgia Nowak and Eugene Peripletchikov, among others.
