The exhibition The Light and Time presents recycled design objects created by students from the Interior Design BA program and the Spatial Design MA program at the New Bulgarian University.
Students have given existing items a second life by converting them into unusual lighting fixtures, clocks, a shelf and a hanger from a skateboard, etc. These are objects that have been found somewhere and through recycling have been placed in a new, unusual context. The students work in the field of conceptual design and explain their work as related to the Dada, Fluxus and neoconceptual movements. They see their works as part of the context of "crisis" and the modern trends in design. For them creation of objects without industrial production is the way to express their understanding of green design. The exhibition opened yesterday at the Art Alley Gallery, Sofia, as part of the 4th Sofia Design Week.
