Arriscraft Lecture: Omer Arbel

Omer Arbel

Omer Arbel explores the intrinsic mechanical, physical, and chemical qualities of materials as fundamental departure points for making work. His interdisciplinary practice spans multiple scales and cultural-economic contexts to include architecture, industrial design, materials research, sculpture, invention, and high craft manufacturing. Arbel’s work has been exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum, Spazio Rossana Orlandi, Mallett, and the Monte Clark Gallery, among others.  He is a three time world architecture festival finalist, recipient of the Ron Thom early design achievement award and the RAIC’s allied arts medal.
