Peter Ibruegger: The Desire of Impermanence

12th September - 25th October 2008 

EXHIBIT is proud to present The Desire of Impermanence by Peter Ibruegger.

The Desire of Impermanence is a new body of work by artist and designer Peter Ibruegger. The exhibition sees further expression of Peter’s research, exploration and fascination with archetypes. On show over both floors at EXHIBIT are a collection of one-off ink drawings characterised by Peter’s Chinese calligraphy technique richly filled with content of western colour palette and subject matters; a range of conceptual ceramic tiles; new developments of the self-sucking Neurotic Narcissism project and a handmade patchwork tapestry. Each individual piece has been lovingly created, with delicacy and devotion.

This new body of work for 2008 sees Peter toy with the themes of duality, repression, loss and desire. The Desire of Impermanence collection was inspired by Peter’s mixed German and Chinese heritage, and his investigations into duality of symbolism across the nations. Peter’s process is one of “dialogue with environment” and he continues to dance the line between beauty, repellence and desire.

During the London Design Festival 2008, Peter Ibruegger will also be showing new versions of his Neurotic Narcissism tiles at Designersblock in Covent Garden and a new lighting collaboration for Create Berlin at Tent London in Brick Lane.
