The Design Circle

kunstkapel-1200

Kunstkapel, Amsterdam

During The Design Circle at Kunstkapel Amsterdam we will present the works of David Derksen and Rogier Arents.

Both designers make use of the same visual grammar: the raster and the moiré effect that appears with movement. In the Moiré Jewelry and Lights by David Derksen new patterns arise by motion. However, in the ‘A Sequence of Operations’ screen prints by Rogier Arents the images contain an optical vibration.

The projects of both designers are visually similar, but they have different starting points; Derksen is inspired by natural phenomena, whereas Arents is led by mathematics.
