The Circle

Dutch Invertuals turn to the mother of all forms: the circle, the ultimate symbol of unity, perfection, and infinity. In times of division and inequity, the circle stands as an emblem of cooperation and connectivity. We need to re-enter its orbit to find what is fundamental in life. Interpreting the elemental form pushes each Invertual to identify what is essential to them.

Since 2009 we initiate curatorial projects with our ever expanding collective. Exhibitions mounted at Milan Design Week and Dutch Design Week have explored relevant topics ranging from mass production and energy consumption, to human psychology and identity.

While the tension between the collective and the individual dominated the artistic and public debate, we’ve embraced cooperation and coexistence. Invertuals find their way of managing the complexity of today by sharing knowledge and thinking together in steady dialogue.

‘The Circle’ at Kazerne features a selection of Dutch Invertuals’ emerging and pioneering designers such as Architects of Identity (Edhv), Daphna Laurens, Raw Color and Martens & Visser, who played a significant role in the genesis of the collective.
