Temporary installation at the gallery Into Art&Furniture, Berlin, Germany
Since 2002, Belgian designer Sebastien Wierinck has been creating his installations of sculptural furniture made of flexible polyethylene tubes. From public benches to cafe seating to temporary installations, his pieces always challenge the way people view and interact with environmental space. (Pics)
A theme that seems to be constant, however, is the idea of opening a space up to wider interaction with its participants through playful, thoughtful movement captured in design. What results is a kind of neo-futuristic, half-alive kind of installation, beckoning the user to take part and become a part of its microcosm.
