New rituals


A lockdown exhibition

New rituals


A lockdown exhibition
As a part of my Master thesis in Spatial design at Konstfack, I designed a series of objects for a contemplative /meditation space.

Type of project
  • Site-specific cases

Due to the Covid-19 lockdown I made each object from materials I had at home-such as pieces of cardboard that I painted in black, rope, duck tape, pieces of wood, marble samples, sponges, bricks, wood branches. With this discarded materials I created 7 objects-each exploring different material and each representing a different ritual.

The rituals are connected to fire, water, reflection. I decided to focus on rituals in our everyday mundane activities, rather than creating a new religion. To show how important routines are to keep us grounded, especially in times of crisis.

To transform my apartment into an exhibition space I have wrapped the space with silver foil. This foil is in fact several emergency blankets-a material that you can find in some first-aid kits. A material that is reflective in itself reflects the objects and the candle light within the space.

The broader impact of my idea is focused on using found materials in creating Spatial experiences.
