Form Follows Meaning: CTRLZAK

Reflecting ideas ranging from humanity’s diverse cultural history to contemporary society and a future world that is conscious of its place in the cosmos, CTRLZAK’s projects draw on tradition and cultural contexts to create a new hybrid future by learning continuously from the past. As a hybrid studio integrating diverse disciplines and cultures, CTRLZAK creates artworks, objects and spaces inspired by the natural world as well as the global experiences and rich cultural backgrounds of its founders. Above all, the studio crafts points of reflection where form follows meaning. Form Follows Meaning explores CTRLZAK’s work from its inception in 2009 when it was founded by artists and designers Katia Meneghini and Thanos Zakopoulos to the present day. Featuring a selection of the studio’s projects, Form Follows Meaning goes beyond aesthetics and functionality to present creative work that is striking and meaningful. CTRLZAK’s creations have been extensively exhibited in galleries around the world and have been selected by museums and institutions including MoMA, the Louvre and the Venice Art Biennale. 80 illustrations
