The kite by HULFE Studio is an air outfit composed of a sled kite top with a string bracelet and a softy bag as a “Cul de Paris” train, which also serves as a seat cushion. It is an air accessory and companion that refers to the silhouette of historical flâneuse figures.
HULFE is a design studio founded in late 2019 by artists Daphne Ahlers and Lilli Thiessen. HULFE emerged from the desire to integrate artistic approaches into everyday objects and to decoratively highlight marginalized processes of daily life. www.hulfe.support
This year, as a homage to the rebellious power of the wind, we are presenting kites designed by nine artists. These will be showcased, flown, and subsequently offered as Jahresgaben during the anniversary celebration of the Dortmunder Kunstverein on November 30, 2024. The project was developed in collaboration with the artist Moritz Englebert, kindly supported by Stellfeld & Ernst GmbH.
