Swarovski at the Design Museum

This exhibition will seek to offer new insights into the evolving relationship between memory and technology, through fourteen individual commissions.

“With the demise of the analogue era our relationship and connection with personal memory, photographs, diaries, letters, time and ephemera is changing,’ said Deyan Sudjic, director of the Design Museum. “Digital Crystal: Swarovski at the Design Museum takes this as a starting point, to question the future and our relationship with the changing world, where it seems all too easy to lose connection with the tangible and the real, as we move ever faster to a digital age where memory and the personal possessions we once held so highly are now online or gone in an instant.”
