Atelier Mark Sturkenboom shows his new work in the Salone del Mobile 2019. Sturkenboom presents three new works this year.

What a time to be alive is a series of mirror objects made from the doors of super-machine carcasses, such as Lamborghini, Ferrari and Porsche. Cars that symbolise the modern idolatry of the 'nouveau riche' but also our collective urge to possess.

Overgrown Bubbles, the result of his recent collaboration with Alex de Witte: a series of luminous objects consisting of glass bubbles covered with natural crystal.

And 'last but not least' his pièce de résistance Sweet Anticipation: A Mousetrap with a price tag of €50,000. Sturkenboom calls it; 'An object waiting to be inhabited.' A direct attack on your moral values.



On the occasion of Salone del Mobile 2019, Siba Sahabi will present for the first time before an international audience her audiovisual installation entitled Nuffar.

Fascinated by the complex relationship that emerges at the moment of transcription between musical composition and graphic notation, Siba Sahabi has created three kinetic works depicting a soundscape made specifically for this project. In the installation, digital information (the music) is translated into analogue images (the patterns), both in design components and movements.

The soundscape, created by Rutger Zuydervelt (aka Machinefabriek), musician and sound artist, is inspired by the world's oldest fully documented and preserved song: a Sumerian hymn from the 14th century BC. Zuydervelt's contemporary interpretation consists of an interweaving of different sound layers that are expressed visually by Sahabi's three 'pattern-machines'.

The installation invites visitors to discover the different sound layers of the musical composition from an audiovisual perspective.
