Re:Materialize
We are delighted to present our collaborative piece with textile artist and designer Elaine Yan Ling Ng, Reverie in Motion, on the occasion of Re:Materialize, an exhibition curated by Zhang Lei and Lu Jingyi of Róng Design Library on the occasion of Design Shanghai 2025.
Titled Reverie in motion the piece transforms the tactile quality of Elaine’s Reverie Jacquard paper fabric series into a modular kinetic installation that blends bamboo, copper and porcelain.
Re:Materialize highlights the proactive design philosophy of “Material-Driven Design.” By re-evaluating materials and exploring innovative applications, it inspires designers to delve into the intrinsic nature and untapped potential of materials, fostering sustainable and imaginative design practices.
The exhibition brings together cross-disciplinary artists, designers, art academies, craftsmanship researchers, and material manufacturers to conduct material-based creations and experiments centered around three themes outlined in Rong Design Library’s 2025/26 Material Trend Report: “Present Optimism,” “Nostalgic Shelter,” and “Harmonic Connection.”
