The A+D Architecture and Design Museum (“A+D Museum”) announced their forthcoming exhibition “One Object at a Time” curated by Ebrahim Poustinchi, Founder/Director of the Robotically Augmented Design (RAD) Lab and Assistant Professor of Architecture at Kent State University. The exhibition, set to open on June 18th 2021, is an exploration of the lines between virtual, physical, and digital, which have been blurred through the notions of physical distancing, WFH, and quarantine. It plays with the experience of space, scale, and architecture in relation to virtuality, presence, and absence. One Object at a Time is the first exhibition of its kind.
The curator uses the exhibition space not just as a platform to showcase these objects, but instead builds the space of the exhibition out of these objects. The objects will be brought together, one at a time, digitally curated, scaled, positioned, and re-imagined as part of a bigger whole. Via an online VR platform, the objects serve both as the exhibition-space, and the exhibited, simultaneously.
