Bombay Sapphire Gallery Berlin
Bombay Sapphire opened a temporary gallery this June to showcase an
exhibition of design objects commissioned by the premium gin.
The 450
sqm exhibition space displayed timelessly elegant designs by major
design industry names such as Tom Dixon, Karim Rashid and Eva Zeisel
plus objects from the „Blue Collection“ line.
These include a
free-floating, experimental light object by Werner Aisslinger, and
dynamically formed lounge furniture with intriguing, sapphire-like
insights created by Markus Benesch.
Beyond the pure exhibition of creative designs, there is also an element of live creation: the artistic duo El Ultimo Grito created an installation whose development visitors could experience on a day-to-day basis.
Bombay Sapphire has been active for many years in the design field,
engaging in co-operations with international designers and supporting
the development of new talent. The Bombay Sapphire Gallery played host to the German public premiere of selected design objects.

Chris O´Shea: Audience
Audience, conceived by rAndom International, is an installation consisting of around 64 head-size mirror objects. Each object moves its head in a particular way to give it different characteristics of human behaviour. Some chat amongst themselves, some shy away and others confidently move to grab your attention.
