39 Scandinavian and international artists and designers are interpreting the physical space between people through a study of the cup as both a medium and an intermediary object.

The exhibition is also a tribute to the pause, as the cup plays a crucial role in allowing the intimate space of presence that is created through a unique morning ritual, an afternoon break, or a meeting between friends. Here the cup becomes the material link in the encounter between people.

Each artist has delivered their interpretation and exploration of the cup, which has resulted in a broad spectrum of materials, formats and abstractions.
