Judith Seng, designer,
born in 1974 in Karlsruhe, Germany
Judith Seng lives and works in Berlin. Her work reflects
isolated situations of everyday living and sharpens the perception
of individual phenomena in our physical environment.
Seng develops aesthetic and conceptual ideas in her
work and materializes them in objects.
« In my work I am interested in the underlying values, motivations
and needs and their manifestations and expressions in everyday
objects and materials. I like to work at the border of what is
perceived as being functional or dysfunctional because I like the
idea of seeing the possibility of actually using an object while at
the same time challenging how it will be used. In that sense objects
would be used both mentally and physically. » (Judith Seng)
Judith Sengs work has been exhibited internationally and
can be found in the collection of the Fonds National d’Art
Contemporain (FNAC ) as well as in the portfolios of companies
and galleries. Judith also regularly teaches and consults.
Recently she has taken up a position as visiting professor
at the University of Arts in Kassel. Her exhibitions include:
Prophets and Penitents, St. Ambrogio and Crossings, Galerie
Post Design in Milan, Nullpunkt. Nieuwe German Gestaltung,
MARTa in Herford, Jung+deutsch in Tokyo and Berlin, Junges
deutsches Design, Gesellschaft für Kunst und Gestaltung in
