Curator-led Tours of Mould by Proof of Concept

On Wednesday 25 March, we are excited to host a day of pre-booked tours of 'Mould' by Proof of Concept. Guests will be guided by one of the curators through the exhibition in small groups, stopping at each exhibitor’s work to learn from the designer-maker themselves.
Through this opportunity for dialogue with the exhibitors in an intimate setting, we expect guests to come away with a deeper insight into the work on display and the potential scope of moulding across a variety of fields.
Reserve your place by booking a ticket on one of the timeslots offered.
Mould explores the craft of moulding across ceramics, plastics, metals and other materials, uncovering the potential at each stage of casting, forming and finishing. By examining how a mould affects the structure and character of an object, the exhibition emphasises the connection between material, technique and the maker’s hand, celebrating the significance of moulding in contemporary design.
Proof of Concept is a design platform founded in 2024 by David Irwin, Smith Matthias and Atelier Thirty Four to explore the intricate processes that underpin design practice. The initiative brings together multidisciplinary studios and independent practitioners spanning furniture, product design, ceramics, textiles and architecture. It showcases self-initiated projects, prototypes and works that never reached production, offering a rare view of the challenges and experimentation that shape the journey from concept to completion.
