In the fall of 2017 we opened Close Contact — a photography exhibition created in close collaboration with Kinfolk and Sørensen Leather. Featuring original artworks by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen, Partner at Norm Architects, the exhibition is an intimate exploration of the sphere versus the human form.
The images highlight the contrasts and connections between geometric and anthropomorphic shapes, the latter referring to the Greek words anthropos and morphe meaning human form. Elements fundamental to our design process. The beautiful look and feel of leather is universal. In my mind, it stems from a connectivity with our own skin and a deeper, innate desire to connect with nature.
