Volume Gallery presents the work of JONATHAN MUECKE in OPEN OBJECTS.

From The Volume Gallery
Open Objects represents Jonathan Muecke's first solo exhibition, comprised of eight objects. The individual objects designed for Volume Gallery, were developed independent of each other. Rather than a collection, Muecke considers each object its own project, the result being that each object is consistent to its counterparts only in its potential – "a quality that is itself immeasurable".

Leaving all to interpretation, Open Objects is a comprehensive study of each object's unique qualities, and dissection of their definition. Muecke's projects are a reflection of the common forms of design and continue to study the meta-object. His projects demand examination. It is within this confrontation, between viewer and object, that development of new thought on functionality and materiality lives. Utilizing materials such as coal slag, glass sand, carbon fiber and gold foil, each piece removes our limitations of understanding and encourages the viewer to engage and interact, rather than react to the object.
