Aloha
I am Itai Eden,
Israeli creator based in Amsterdam.
Since my graduation I have worked on a number of projects, independently and as part of a group. Currently looking to join ongoing projects and studios which I can relate to, and believe in their doings.
Statement
My works explore the (im)possibilities of deep human-human\cosmos synchronization, by using speculative and research through design (RtD) methodologies. From a cybernetic perspective, my design processes relate to the objects as artifacts, which can be used as tools for experimentation and catalysts for new practices to form. It's about being in touch, in ways that allow response-ability and exposing subjectivity to the other - bringing this encounter into conception.
My inspiration is drawn from little moments of coincidences and extrasensory perception, which makes me (playfully) hypersensitive to the present moment, oscillating between the banal and the philosophical. Things too near to touch, misunderstandings too slight to notice and tiny truths too inconvenient to say, are the kind of communication textures that generate my doings.
Movement and attention are recurring elements in my practice, but my language is performative and experimentation. (Un)known (un)knowns are my tool.
