ABOUT
Kasper Kyster
Kasper Kyster勇于探索未知领域。他渴望通过测试自己的直觉,并尝试不同的材料和原则,以实现某种自发性的创作。他的动力主要源自于创作过程本身,即追求独特而非完美,享受创作与生产的过程。在他的艺术设计中,每一次实验都是对既有认知的突破,每一次尝试都是对未知的勇敢迈进。
他基于静力学、构造学、形态与功能等主题,坚定不移地致力于实现一个能够转化为家具或艺术品的单一概念。这种限制性的创作方式,使他的作品显得自然而直观,仿佛是灵感突发、一气呵成的结果。
Kyster将材料与工艺置于至高无上的地位。他对于如何运用传统工艺赋予材料新的美学价值充满好奇,同时也热衷于探索现代技术如何重新定义工艺对美学的影响。他始终保持批判性的视角,热衷于研究并挑战过去的经验,以期搭建起通往当代语境的桥梁。在他的创作中,传统与现代、工艺与科技相互交织,共同塑造出既具有深厚文化底蕴又不失时代感的设计作品。
In his project "Crafting Plastic," Danish designer Kasper Kyster challenges the very perception of everyday materials.During the vibrant 3 days of design festival in Copenhagen, Kyster unveiled his first solo exhibition at Officinet in Bredgade 66. This showcase highlights his approach, using transparent plastic tubes to create a variety of domestic furniture. His collection pushes the boundaries of modern craftsmanship, transforming industrial materials into artful expressions.
Kyster dreams of bridging industrial design and art, creating pieces that inspire new ideas. "My dream is that my practice can include both worlds," Kyster explains. This vision is evident in "Crafting Plastic," which challenges perceptions of plastic by showcasing its potential in design.
Using a technique, Kyster manipulates transparent plastic tubes to create chairs, lighting, stools, and benches, forcing a reconsideration of this ubiquitous material.

Kyster's designs are easily understood, both in construction and functionality. "People should be able to understand my design, how it's made and how it's put together," he emphasizes. This transparency is mirrored in the visible structure of the plastic tubes.
