TIL:VÆRKS is a new exhibition space in Copenhagen. It curates both artistic and methodical investigations in architecture, design and craft. A non-commercial platform for a playful reunion of the professions involved in the shaping of our physical surroundings. Encouraging flirtations with a free artistic approach. By focusing on analogue manifestations, it showcases tangible and sensory spatial experiences. TIL:VÆRKS is located in Østerbro, at the end of the Lakes. It occupies a sunny corner of a transformed laundromat and has been open since February.

TIL:VÆRKS presents a group exhibition focusing on both the spatial qualities of objects and the tactile qualities of space. The selected works showcase architects working with objects as well as designers, artists and craftsmen working with architectural concepts of space, landscape, grids, colour, construction, composition, and balance. The many individual approaches represent the diversity of expression: from refined craftsmanship to the rough treatment of materials. From the ethereal to the massive. From spaces playing with light, to objects glowing in the dark. Works that can enrich and contrast each other. Each exploring space through a wide range of materials including ceramics, textile, wood and metal.
