Niidome & Lautenbacher: Hiver – Fuyu

Lokal Gallery

In the wintertime exhibition, wood and ceramics complement each other. The pitch black and glossy white wooden surfaces and the tones of red clay brick alongside porcelain are windows to other worlds – they bring play, warmth and comfort to the middle of this season.

In their work, Niidome and Lautenbacher move freely in the field of design, art and handicrafts. The creators are always inspired by the construction of things with simple basic shapes. With them, they create miniature worlds, the theme of which is often man as a part of nature; as its observer and, on the other hand, as its shaper. The works refer to imaginary and utopian landscapes out there, somewhere.

Finnish-Japanese Naoto Niidome and Finnish-French Nathalie Lautenbacher were both born in the winter of 1974, and they are celebrating their 50th birthdays this year. The exhibition is a compilation of thoughts and observations from this year and from long ago.
