Brian Kritzman’s experimental design work has been recognized and published in books and periodicals. Originally trained as an object maker, Kritzman draws from processes in the shop environment. Additionally, he explores the poetics resulting from the dissection and reconfiguration of meaning.
Kritzman has lectured on his work at universities and art institutions in the US and in China. His constructed environments, designed objects and sculptures have been built and exhibited worldwide.
Momentary Space
Momentary Space is a phrase that I have used several years now and it describes two related conditions that are of interest. The first meaning of this simple phrase is to describe the constantly changing aspect of space and material objects. What appears to be static is really comprised of many infinitesimal shifts in material reality. The other is to describe the organic nature of inspiration. The more unbound inspiration is, the more satisfying it is. A difficult state to achieve but always worth the effort. Hold on, theres a lot to talk about in our 10 minute romp.
