Pin-up is delighted to announce Matthew Bird (Studiobird) and Phillip Adams (BalletLab) as 2014 Summer Residents.
Opening Night: 6pm - 9pm Thursday 27 March
Exhibition runs: 27 - 29 March 2014.
Pin-up was excited to host Matthew Bird (Studiobird) and Phillip Adams (BalletLab) as 2014 Summer Residents with a new collaborative project – EMBASSY.
EMBASSY brings together a visual playground of experimental architecture, visual design / performance research and practice. Working with curator Fleur Watson – co-founder of Pin-up – the residency will provide a platform for an ongoing exchange.
Phillip and Matthew have been engaged within interdisciplinary practice since 2010 with projects including the award-winning Aviary presented at the Melbourne Festival (2011) & MONA FOMA (2012) and, more recently, And All Things Return To Nature Tomorrow presented at The Lawler, Melbourne Theatre Company (2013).
During these few short years Matthew and Phillip have formed a collaborative practice of experimental and unconventional projects straddling multiple disciplines of architecture, installation art, performing art and choreography. Together, their body of work has developed a loyal following and is increasingly attracting international media interest.
The residency resulted with the physical construction of a large and speculative embassy ‘foundation’ structure; experimenting with ready-made materials in a complex formation testing possible future notions of embassy groundwork, blueprint, form and aesthetic.
Inspired by the notion of the object itself and how it can be deposited outside its usual static context, BalletLab and Studiobird were interested in arousing public curiosity and engaging speculative embassy environments by placing unusual constructs in populated civic environments as an experiential refuge space.
An underlying philosophy to the EMBASSY project proposal is a research interest in unpredictability, experimentalism and to a degree ‘unreasonable’ collective practice. Concepts are bold, broad and universal with references to popular culture, science fiction, high art, modernism and participatory art.
The outcome of the Pin-up residency will form the foundation of the project’s ongoing development with plans to extend the collaboration within a national and international context. This aspiration is in keeping with Pin-up’s agenda to lead, support and expose the process of developing architectural and design ideas and to support cross-disciplinary creative exchange within an independent, community space.

About
Pin-up is an independent architecture and design gallery, project and event space housed within one of Melbourne's most vibrant creative precincts. Firmly engaged with promoting local debate yet with an international outlook, Pin-up is dedicated to exhibiting, communicating and promoting architecture and design in an accessible, responsive and inspirational environment.
Pin-up is an initiative of Something Together, founded by Fleur Watson, Curator and former Editor of Monument Magazine, and Martyn Hook, Architect and Melbourne Editor of AR Magazine. Something Together is a creative studio focused on presenting architecture and design in an intelligent and accessible way through the design, curation and production of exhibitions, events and publications. Joining Fleur and Martyn on Pin-up is Emma Telfer, Partner and Marketing Communications Lead.
Pin-up takes its name from a studio approach where designers 'pin-up' their design process in order to reveal ideas through presenting them to others and, in turn, develop a richer, more meaningful understanding of the importance of investing in quality architecture and design.
Pin-up would not be possible without the support of our Sponsors: City of Yarra, Planning Studio on Peel, De Bortoli, Light Project, Chase & Galley, Chairbiz and Design to Print.
