A new exhibition at the Ivan Dougherty Gallery in Paddington explores the nature of designed objects from a craft / art / design context, and the idea of 'integration' across, between and within design disciplines. Curated by Liz Williamson, Integration: the nature of objects, addresses the way in which designers fuse seemingly diverse references, concepts and materials in order to realise very individual and innovative objects.

Reflecting the current interest in 'multi-disciplinary' and 'cross-disciplinary' design, this exhibition examines the breadth of reference points, contexts and how the practice of integration can and does impact on design.

The exhibition features the work of a selection of Australian and international artists, designers and craftspeople including Roderick Bamford (NSW), Roseanne Bartley (Vic), Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec (France), Karina Clarke (NSW), Donald Fortescue (USA), Cecilia Heffer (NSW), Trent Jansen (NSW), Sophie Roet (UK), Daniel Rosenbaum (NSW), Inga Sempé (France), Studio subTela / Barbare Layne (Canada) and Zoe Veness (NSW).

Exhibition talks will be held at the Ivan Dougherty Gallery on Friday 9 March and Thursday 29 March at 2.00pm.
