Currency of the Future
16th - 21st September 2024, Bank of England Museum, London Group show curated by KesselsKramer London, as part of the London Design Festival. Money is changing so rapidly it’s hard to keep up. While money’s future is usually predicted by financial experts, it’s now time to ask what form it would take, from a more artistic standpoint. Me and other 16 artists were invited to imagine the currency of the future. With: Tommy Brentnall, Ben Denzer, Maya Golyshkina, Ferry Gouw, Freddie Guthrie, Sebastian Koenig, Minori Murata, Martin Nicolausson, Harriet Richardson, PUTPUT, Really Big Chimp, Simona Mehandzhieva, Shahram Saadat, Inari Sirola, Helmut Smits, Can Sun. In my work ‘A penny for your thoughts’ one thing gets exchanged for the next, creating a chain of associations and connections that playfully questions the abstract, subjective and relative ways we regard the value of things.
