Baars & Bloemhoff returns to Milan’s Ventura Centrale vaults.
For 'Transitions III: Experimental Inventiveness', six leading Dutch design studios were invited to work their magic with the company’s extensive materials collection. Bart Joachim van Uden, Christian Heikoop, Floris Wubben, Job van den Berg, Mae Engelgeer and Studio Truly Truly will show the public startling techniques, applications and combinations. After months of investigating and exploring the rich archive of Baars & Bloemhoff, the studios are ready to show their personal material explorations with new work, and exciting adaptations and variations of existing work. The set design is made by Studio Harm Rensink, known for their expertise in spatial design experiences.
For Transitions III, Studio Harm Rensink created a pink-and-black ‘BeetleJuice’ world made entirely of SIBU mirrors and striped light tubes. The striped, mirrored platforms reflect the exhibited objects, the light tubes, the visitors and the immense arching ceiling, resulting in an infinite visual echo in space.
