Stories In Form — Henry Wilson
Friday January 27 2012
Welcome to the final installment of our series profiling the designers featured in our exhibition Stories In Form, on at Object Gallery from 27 January — 24 March 2012. Click here to find out more information about the exhibition, and click here to catch up on the rest of the series, including an introduction from curator Jacqueline Power.
Henry Wilson is an award-winning designer with his roots entrenched in responsible and sustainable work. Most recently, Wilson won the Bombay Sapphire Design Discovery Award, taking the prize for his versatile A-Joint. For Stories In Form, Wilson has provided a twist on a classic design, as well as a new object housed in familiarity whilst creating something totally new.
Stories In Form — An Introduction
Friday January 20 2012
As the curator of Stories in Form I am thrilled to be able to introduce this exciting exhibition. So what makes this exhibition special?
I believe that a particularly exciting aspect of this exhibition is that all of the pieces on display are products – they have the potential to be manufactured in large numbers. These are the types of items that owners often seem to cherish the least because they lack personalisation.
What makes us love our belongings? Often the things we cherish the most have little monetary value but have an unseen value – they may remind us of a person, a place or a special moment. The object becomes a receptacle for stories.
