Matériaux at Espace WIP

Matériaux is a project by Montréal-based gallery WIP that aims to initiate a dialogue between the works of seventeen artists around our relationship to matter in a context where technology and overproduction cause a loss of contact with it. By moving away from the original use and the initial form of materials, the artists transform residual materials such as wood, steel, concrete, plastic and other composite materials to address various social, economic, political and ecological. The plurality of approaches and materials presented in this exhibition reflects the multiplicity and diversity of points of view present in our modern societies.

The typeface used for the key visual is Hofmann, designed by and available at Nguyen Gobber. The sans serif is Helvetica Now by Monotype.
