A Bau Haus | Plexiglas, pear wood, box with embossing and printing of photopolymer clichés | 2019 | Edition of 6

 

The modular system for houses developed by Walter Gropius made it possible to adapt to different needs through its many possible combinations. Martha Burkhardt's adaptation, on the other hand, does not aim at the finished product, but invites us to find our own, not necessarily intentional structures. The haptic stimulus is created by a material contrast of pear wood and Plexiglas.
