Since opening the doors at their new location last year, Portland's Museum of Contemporary Craft has been falling over itself trying to become the design museum so many of the residents of this quietly design-obsessed town desperately want. Case in point, the upcoming ManufRactured show, opening this coming Thursday the 28th.
Curated by former ID Magazine editor Steven Skov Holt, among others, the show gathers together 16 artists and designers who've been doing curious things with repurposed materials over the past few years. Some recent high-profile projects will be on display, including Cat Chow's zipper dress, Dominic Wilcox's War Bowl, and at least one of Jason Rogenes' fantastic styrofoam packing insert lanterns (example shown above); admission is free.
