Making Connections for LDF 2014
Marcus Tremonto specialises primarily in experimental technology-driven lighting, aiming to decontextualize and repurpose traditional designs. For this years LDF exhibition at Mint, Marcus created a series of adapted objects with intricately patterned custom circuits only becoming connected when placed on an array of unique conductive surfaces. The almost living design of the Pelle Condoctivo collection further explores and broadens the possibilities of the function of surface. The hand-cut circuit pattern reflects the story of a Paper Mill and its rather desolate future, as it is expected that virtually every material will become technology-based. The Paper Mill depicted on the vases not only shows the soon-outdated way of paper production but it also represents the very technology that will cause its demise.
