Product Island

Jerusalem Design Week

8 – 15 June 2017

The Product Island functions as a desert island for the designer, where the wild nature is replaced with a jungle rich with raw materials.

Various design events will take place on the island, representing man’s basic needs: the basic need for food and drink will be marked by a cocktail night, the need for clothing and security will be displayed in a fashion installation, the need for identity and community will be expressed through various lectures, and the need for self-realization will be translated into an auction of the objects that will be created throughout the week.

White Flag

Triennale di Milano

16 June – 27 August 2017

Throughout the course of history, utopias have almost always attempted to build new worlds. And impose new models. Each one saturating the space and claiming to be unique and perfect. The result is a world saturated with models that suffocate each other. That are mutually exclusive. That all attempt to exclude the others and assert only themselves…

The white flag is a symbol of surrender. It speaks in the same language to everyone. Its meaning is universal. When it appears, it calls for a ceasefire: under the protection of the white flag and the space for dialogue it creates, opposing sides can find ways to coexist, without the existence of one side meaning the submission or extinction of the other.

Secondome Design Gallery, Rome
15 December 2014 – 30 January 2015
Designers’ Joy is the first Contemporary Jewellery exhibition presented by Secondome Gallery,
curated by Domitilla Dardi.
The exhibition hosts privileged new creations, along with the revival of existing projects, by a diverse group of designers of different ages and cultural backgrounds. The divergent spectrum of International jewellery present in this group show is analyzed in every possible aspect by 20 international designers: Massimiliano Adami, Maria Jennifer Carew, Odoardo Fioravanti, Lanzavecchia+Wai, RuiYin Lin, Eugenia Morpurgo and Olivia de Gouveia, Nucleo, Chiara Onida, Paula, Omer Polak, Superstudio, Giò Tirotto, Zaven. Marc Newson, Ted Noten, Gijs Bakker, Paolo Ulian, Rolf Sachs for CHP. Selvaggia Armani for Bijouets.
Every jewel opens a door to explore a different concept of design and beauty; thus, a reflection upon the language of ornament, decoration and beauty. This exhibition highlights the values of research in a new area of design for most of these established artists. Breaking away from the routines of their predominant design programs, the designers involved have experimented with technology, craftsmanship, shapes, materials and new productive processes.
