" Materials / Designers " Exhibition Guided Tour | 『 物料 / 設計師 』展覽導賞團

關於展覽 |

Slash可指斜槓族，是一種近年新興的概念。指年輕一輩不再受傳統工作模式所束縛，隨自己心意彈性地選擇工作。他們介紹自身職業時會以「／」作為分隔，劃分開自己的不同角色。為生活增加更多可能性，是一種生活態度和追求。

『物料／設計師』展覽融入了斜槓概念，展示物料與設計師之間的自由配搭。物料資源中心邀請了七位年輕的設計師，他們均畢業於香港理工大學設計學院，在學生時期曾奪得不同獎項，現於不同設計領域各展所長。展覽以物料為題，設計師選擇一種能代表自己的物料，並用該物料出一件作品。物料選擇由常見的紙張、木頭、亞加力到較為特別的智能材料——OLED螢幕和生物物料——酵母，各自展現出鮮明的個性。物料資源中心希望透過展覽，讓參觀者了解設計師對不同物料的獨特見解，感受物料與設計師之間的關係，以及探索不同物料的可能性。

About the exhibition |

Slasher is an emerging term coined for those with multiple careers, referring to the numerous ‘slashes’ in their work title enumerating their different job abilities. The idea of slashing suggests that young people no longer confine themselves to a single position. Multiple careers allow them to pursue various interests and a more satisfactory work-life balance.

“Materials / Designers” reflects the idea of slashing by displaying designers’ liberating relationships with different materials. The Material Resource Centre of PolyU Design invited seven young designers, the alumni of PolyU Design at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, to create artwork for the exhibition. These young designers achieved outstanding accomplishments and received numerous awards during their studies, and now, they have unleashed their potential in various fields of design. For this material-themed exhibition, each designer has produced artwork using a single material, from the traditional, including paper, Hong Kong reclaimed wood and acrylic, to new intelligent panels such as OLED and a biological agent, yeast. Each material has unique characteristics. With this exhibition, the Material Resource Centre of PolyU Design hopes to show the designers’ insights into these materials, allowing visitors to understand their relationships and explore the materials’ possibilities.
