‘The Edge Re-Visited’ Exhibition

‘The Edge Re-Visited’ is a solo exhibition by Tarek Elkassouf

The Edge – Beirut Collection takes a cue from the city of Beirut – a city always on the edge of instability, chaos, creativity and adaptability.

The designer’s Middle Eastern upbringing and architectural background are woven into the series with the use of repetition of forms and geometric patterns often found in Arabic architecture. At the heart of this series is the cube. Each design takes the pure form of a cube, distorts, bends and twists it with such precision that if unbent and untwisted it would return to its original cube form.

Three of the designs from ‘The Edge’ use the principle of repetition of forms with each unit able to fit together with other units into various shapes and forms to suit different tastes and layouts. The designer also researched the essence of the oriental light often seen in traditional Middle Eastern Souks, and implemented its principles in contemporary shapes for this series.

This new series is versatile, and takes the concept to adaptability to another level.
