Part of events on ArtRabbit in: Berlin
Pegasus Product is dedicated to the broken, open edge, the civilizational grind, creating artefacts and requisites of a contemporary mythology as a lens for contemplating one's own existence and as a tool for locating oneself. Industrially produced in all-encompassing logic of economy, the new pressboard furniture is cheaper than its material. As soon as its interior is revealed through the broken edge, it is disposed of, along with all the energetic charging it received through daily use, in a dark corner where anonymity and poverty can meet. As small islands of contemporary archaeology, these corners are like natural sources of witnesses to our existential context. Is the urine-soaked billy shelf a secret globe bar or house altar? Are microwaves chairs? Is the broken salt crystal lamp double, or half as effective? Pegasus Product is a young, dynamic collaborative practice of Dargelos Kersten, Anton Peitersen and Gernot Seeliger, who enviously eye the generic consumer product, and blatantly seek to appropriate and further develop seemingly tried and tested products, to make the broken pressboard presentable, and to experience paving stones as energetically healing.
