EXHIBITION STATEMENT

The Millen House, gallery and project space in Amsterdam, is thrilled to announce the upcoming solo exhibition of multi-disciplinary designer Rutger de Regt. Titled ``HOMO FABER,`` the exhibition will showcase De Regt's diverse works from the last twelve years from 25th July to august 25th. Multi-disciplinary designer Rutger de Regt is a maker, a modern craftsman whose urge for creation has led to a highly individual body of work. Driven by an intuitive approach, De Regt works in a vast range of materials, exploring different techniques and mediums by constantly pushing the limits of design. His well-received collection “Mommy I Made an Ashtray” explores the possibilities of the traditional medium of clay in an intuitive and unconventional way. His latest series “Carbon Extraction,” made from yellow kevlar and white concrete, recreates an artificial landscape inspired by all things we extract, store, and deposit into the earth, illustrating the slow but steady replacement of crust materials by synthetic materials.
