Utstilling
Something Concrete?
This exhibition gathers material studies developed within Studio 3, a Master’s course exploring design through experimentation rather than resolution. The works emerge from sustained engagement with a chosen materiality such as wood, surface, softness, shadow, or phenomenon, approached as something to listen to, test, and remain with.
Material Investigations
Throughout this process, many students have searched for questions through making, using material practice as a pre-stage for their Master’s projects. The what, why, and how have been integral to the work, forming a red thread that runs through each investigation.
Rather than aiming for finished objects, the projects unfold through prototypes, fragments, and variations. Making becomes a way of thinking. Touch, repetition, and failure are treated as knowledge. What is shown here may appear resolved, yet for most it marks only a beginning.
The exhibition title Something Concrete? plays on the Norwegian word konkret, meaning tangible. The projects seek to establish something graspable, a material baseline from which further inquiry can grow.
