Window and in-store installations are realised in collaboration with Odd Matter, a cutting-edge design studio driven by curiosity for the strange and wonderful, believing in researching, probing,and exploring our world through its materials, processes andconcepts – and Marcel Christ, a still-life photographer and video-maker. Having studied both chemical engineering and photography, Marcel Christ blends these two interests to achieve powerfully dynamic and colourful works, a conscious combination of control, aesthetics, and coincidence, red the quintessential Holiday colour, will pervade windows, facades, and interiors in the form of marbled prints in brightscarlet tones. Odd Matter sculptures, characterised by fluid shapes in the neutral shades of stones, will be exposed side by side of LED screens showcasing Marcel Christ’s videos inspired by the coloured marbles of the collection.
