“This year, all of the works on view present small scale representations of each artist’s investigation into the traditional design maxim ‘form follows function.’ While the works on view can hold water for flowers, soil for plants, and so on, each artist’s individual approach creates many exciting (and surprising) forms.”
— Stephen Markos, Superhouse Founder
Visitors to Super Group 2 will find utilitarian objects, such as vases, planters, water jugs, fruit bowls and more, formed from diverse materials and processes, including cast bronze, molded silicone, carved alabaster, stitched paper, blown glass, sculpted paper pulp and woven linen.
