DESCRIPTION
Design by Time explores how the notion of the dynamic passage of time can be embodied within design objects. Examples come from many sectors of the design world: textiles, carpets, ceramics, lighting fixtures, fashion, clocks, and furniture, for example. Some designers embrace processes, natural and mechanical. Some translate durational activities, such as music and drawing into visual forms. Design by Time is the first exhibition to identify and bring together works from known and emerging designers whose interest is in expressing the passage of time, a visual expression of life, through the design of objects.
