New exhibition at SPARK Malmo, Fake Fakes & Multilayered Materialities,
BRRUM (SE).
Fake Fakes studies fake materials and fictive materialities in-between image and stone, drawing and architecture. It explores combinations of computerized and reused techniques for translating and imitating fake stone, taking its starting point in a series of case studies of faux marbling (surfaces painted to look like marble) in Italy and Sweden. Just like historical marble imitations our translations produce new material qualities and effects where ambiguities between one material and the image of another emerge.
