Gelinkt - De Collectie Netwerkt, Design Museum Gent (scenography), Gent, 2013, icw curator Chris Meplon, advisor Moniek Bucquoye

At the invitation of curators Chris Meplon and Moniek Bucquoye, GAFPA realised the scenography for the exhibition “Linked: the collection networks” in the Design Museum Ghent. On the ground floor, international design pieces are brought together around a few selected masterpieces from the museum’s collection.

Along the edge of the central glass floor, a light open cabinet is constructed from white cardboard. By lowering the adjustable glass floor two steps, the spaces inside and outside the cabinet wall offer different proportions to the collection pieces. From the outside, you can look over the cabinet and experience the exhibition space as a whole; on the inside, you get an interior experience on the scale of a room. Thus, the intervention generates different fragmentary perspectives on the design pieces on display.
