excerpt
Thea Djordjadze’s work is anchored in process, based on an ongoing flow of reusing, reconfiguring, and rearranging objects. [...]
Influenced by both historical artefacts and modern art and architecture, her sculptural works have a distinctive aesthetic with unexpected contrasts, including small nuances, peripheral details and subtle perfections or imperfections. Djordjadze uses materials such as foam, textiles, wood, metal, plaster, and glass. Some of her objects appear delicate, implying transience and changeability, while others are distinctly defined, suggesting the functionality of institutional display devices via frames and vitrines. The artist also references everyday objects such as chairs, shelves, and architectural elements.
The exhibition all building as making suggests ways in which a static building can be activated by the fluid act of making, energising both material and space to bring new life to architecture.
The complex history of the Gropius Bau’s own building and its changing purpose influenced the artist’s feel of the rooms. The exhibition all building as making suggests ways in which a static building can be activated by the fluid act of making, energising both material and space to bring new life to architecture.
