Marcos pays respect to the incredible capacity this material endows in each piece of bakelite he transforms into an object of beauty through his jewellery pieces. In connection to his exhibition The House of Hallmarcos, Until Never invites you to a 30-minute artist talk with Marcos Davidson to learn about this historical and now antique material, known as the first 3D synthetic material, and its role in his work over the span of his 30 year career.
