RMIT creative research group, Urban Interior (UI) will occupy Craft Victoria, Flinders Lane to create a research laboratory to explore the spatial and temporal dimensions of the inhabited, urban environment, between 9 – 20 September.

Questioning/ignoring the conventional 10am to 5pm opening hours and white cube display of artefacts, Urban Interior will take over Craft Victoria through performances, actions, changes, sound, smell, thoughts, image, discussions, presentations, night and day; redistributing and enfolding outside and insides, individuals and collectives.

Craft Victoria will be arranged by acts of crafting as distinct from craft artefacts, by process rather than outcomes. UI – you and I – will encounter, experience and experiment with relational conditions as individuals and collectives in the urban environment of Melbourne. UI is composed of individuals from a range of disciplines including fashion, sound, interior design, architecture, and industrial design and art. As a collective, individual research trajectories cover a breadth of practices, scales and concerns from the intimacy of bodies to events within the public realm.

Urban Interior Research Group includes:
Suzie Attiwill, Mick Douglas, Michael Fowler, Robyn Healy, Rochus Urban Hinkel, Roger Kemp, Mick Peel, Malte Wagenfeld, Collaborators.
