“Letter B” exhibited for London Design Festival 2024
Dan Tobin Smith follows previous LDF installations “The First Law of Kipple” in 2014, “Void” in 2019 and last year’s “Letter C” with the latest in his ongoing “Alphabetical” series, Letter B.
The 22nd letter of the alphabet to be completed so far, Letter B is a kinetic installation using wind to move seemingly random shaped metal flags that have the potential to create the letter form. Inspired by Bruno Munari’s useless machines, the installation makes reference to that work by having a hidden structure in its conception and execution.
It is available to view in the window of Art Practice, 148-150 Curtain Road, EC2A 3AT from 14th – 22nd September 2024. Open 24 hours a day.
