MINDCRAFT18 : Focus on materiality and sensuous qualities

The focus is on materiality and aesthetics when the Danish Arts Foundation presents MINDCRAFT18, the annual flagship exhibition for Danish design and craft at the Milan Design Week in April

In this year’s exhibition, the objects on display take centre stage, with an emphasis on the hands-on engagement with the material and the visual, aesthetic and sensuous qualities of the objects.

Since 2008 the annual MINDCRAFT exhibitions have presented brand-new works by some of Denmark’s leading designers and craft makers at the Milan Design Week

The selected participants cover a broad range within Danish craft and design, including both new and established practitioners. A common factor shared by them all is a unique and experimental approach to their field. They push their materials to the limit and challenge the boundaries of the possible.

This year’s participants: Anja Vang Kragh, Carl Emil Jacobsen, Cecilie Bendixen, Gitte Jungersen, Iben Høj, Isabel Berglund, Kasper Kjeldgaard, Katrine Borup, Kevin Hviid, Louise Campbell, Maria Koshenkova, Petra Dalström, Pettersen & Hein, Rasmus Fenhann and Wednesday Architecture
