SHOP is a key event of Singapore Design Week curated by Hans Tan together with a team of designer-curators. Ten showcases presented across the Bras Basah, Bugis Design District creatively examine the rituals of daily life through the lens of design, where each showcase delves into a specific activity such as Eat, Sleep, Shop, Read, Heal, Make, Plant, Commute, Display and Design.
The Everyday Shop is a pop-up shop and exhibition offering a selection of everyday goods that invite shoppers to deliberate, contemplate, or experience dilemmas while shopping. Over 20 designers and artists are invited to exhibit small works and stock multiple ‘reproductions’ of them in this shop. These are familiar items like wearables, household goods, desk accessories, stationery, and display items, but they reflect unusual qualities that differ from mass-produced or mass market items.
Sebastian Bergne was invited to participate with five of his projects; Bob Hat, Check Mate, Fruit Vase, Memory Maker and Mini Plinths
Exhibition: 26th Sep – 6th October 2024.
