Design Haus Liberty and ARTLINER in collaboration with Harvey & John, DEWfall, 2016. Installation view at Palazzo Bembo, 2016.

The DEWfall room features the specially created ‘DEWdrop’ light sculpture, which is based on the concept of morning dew falling off a leaf. Entering the exhibit, the user is immersed in a controlled environment where dew condenses and falls.
As the number of participants increases, you engage your senses of touch, sight, and sound and find yourself unaware of time passing by. Experiencing a mirrored, dark room where dew falls infinitely around you and observing nature in a closed environment – giving the effect of a storm in an infinite space. Blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor, engaging with nature rather than the usual reaction of sheltering from the elements.
The DEWdrop itself is a bespoke light feature designed for the platform of the Venice Biennale and will be available for purchase following our exhibition. Each DEWdrop is individually hand-blown and formed by local UK artisans creating organic sizes and shapes of the glass itself.
Together, the installation of DEWfall creates a heightened experience for visitors to the Biennale in which users can transcend time, space, and existence.
