The Hydra cabinet, the result of a technologically advanced process devised and handmade by Studio Furthermore, is highly sculptural and asymmetric in form. A pair of angel-winged doors open to reveal a layered universe of translucency, illuminated by shimmers of light.
Cabinets of curiosity, typically large cupboards or rooms containing artefacts and rarities, date back to 16th-century Europe and were the precursors to museums.
Aristocrats would assemble esoteric collections of fossils, dried insects, works of art, and more, reflective of their taste and identity. Often driven by a desire to gain greater insight into the world, collectors could construct for themselves their own version of reality.
