JONALDDUDD is an independently organized exhibition of design-based works that prioritize personal expression and formal exploration over commercial conformity. Set against the backdrop of NYC Design Week JONALDDUDD offers a platform for artists and designers making irreverent works that challenge both industry and cultural conventions.
PUNX NOT DEAD.
Dudd Haus and The Future Perfect are pleased to announce DUDD LITE, a group exhibition of artist-designed nightlights.
DUDD LITE considers the nightlight as an essential domestic object, useful yet emotive, expressive yet utilitarian. These small works of unexpected light in darkness, often sculptural beyond reason, are designed for the times when the house goes dark. SO LET’S GET LIT!
