Extract from the curatorial statement: The exhibition is presenting for the first time a survey of certain prominent contemporary design attitudes that we find novel and worthy of further investigation today. The work exhibited here is primarily from recent graduates, young teachers, or current students who have worked under the guidance of the instigators of these various design approaches. Both the excitement and skepticism around these methods are due to the fact that they are yet to come to fruition as built projects. Aesthetics are radically redefining themselves with emergent tools and contemporary devices as a result of new technologies and techniques. Since these intelligent tools are embedded in so many aspects of our daily lives, we think it is no longer viable to talk about a digital or post-digital era. The aesthetic shift these methods have recently created is what is at stake in this exhibition. With prosthesis comes the notion of enhancement and augmentation- both of which seem to point towards a techno-fetishist paradigm. But the focus of the exhibition lies elsewhere. The work presented here is more of a recording device than a speculative tool. These drawings testify for the ever so hybrid nature of design processes today.
