Reading Room, Marta Publications 1 - 10

Benjamin Critton and Heidi Korsavong founded Marta in September of 2019, as a venue to host "works at the meeting points of art and design" and to make "space for artists to experiment with the utility of design, and for designers to explore the occasional abandonment of function." 

To celebrate their third anniversary they are opening a "gentle retrospective" this evening, focusing on the first ten publications from the gallery:
