relativity

The first official exhibition of the london based gallery ‹between› featured 10 young designers and design studios around the world. They were all invited to think and respond to the meaning of the word ‹between›.

Swiss designer Marcus Kraft contributed a triptych which was an attempt to translate Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity into a piece of concept art: Sometimes, one second can change your whole life. On the other hand, a whole year can feel very boring, unimportant and dull. What if one year is as long as one day or even one second? — Maybe there’s no difference at all.

  1. Just watched the Milton Glaser video posted below (which was a great post by the way) and saw this when returning to the home page. I must say that I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.

    After watching and in depth video for a good chunk of time it was nice to see this simplistic post to clear my head.

    Awesome concept and a great way to put such an abstract notion in the form of “art.”

    Thank you SwissMiss, you never dissapoint :)
