Spain Santiago de Compostela Workshop: Dogma furniture: `freedom in design is uninterresting limited freedom is real design` Show/speech about dogmatic architecture and design which influenced me in my work. I took a view on Bauhaus manifest in Weimar and danich dogmatic and nomadic furniture 1960´ in Denmark and explained how those designs influenced me. I opened the workshop with this show.
I wanted to do some furniture with left over wood from the factory MO www.mozoo.es . Glue nails screws and paint was forbidden. We had saws, jigsaws and other tools. All the furniture were in 1:1 And illustrated what happens when you take freedom away from creative persons. "freedom in design is uninteresting limited freedom is real design." The reason to do such a workshop is to find new archetypes. And to make a dogma ( a frame) within you are free. To find new references is to create. And to take a look on the ecological aspect in a workshop like this. The workshop lasted 4 days.
