About the exhibition:

The Dresden Museum of Decorative Arts lists more than 55,000 inventory numbers, each of which can tell its own story. The exhibition draws from the museum’s entire collection resources, the “unity”, and proceeds to show “parts” of it.
It focuses on references and relation- ships that can arise between a unity and its individual constituents. Accordingly, in the exhibition “Parts of a Unity” we see unexpected neighbourships happening. Overall, this results in new ways of seeing things and puts the spotlight on the Museum of Decorative Arts as
an institution with contemporary relevance, its collection ranging far beyond Baroque pomp and circumstance.

We completely “dressed” the space around us.  

Our aim was to present fashion without really showing the
separate pieces but instead treating them in an unexpected
and unusual way. We deprived clothing of its common
function, placing it within space and intervening with the
room that in the end reminds of a busy home.
