Markus Müller, Sam Porritt, Alexander Wolff - Cafe Gallery

Natural and domestic forms are pushed beyond the point of practical purpose in the works of Markus Müller, Sam Porritt and Alexander Wolff. The materials used and sculptural assemblages presented are rarely what they seem. (Mis)appropriated DIY, design or art-historical details may bring to mind a real-world function or context, but in each work the production standards of the physical entities implied have been contravened. While we are unlikely to be duped into believing that these hybrid manifestations could be anything other than art objects, there is a level of trickery to eachartist’s material play that encourages questioning of personal assumptions about many familiar structures.
