Freddy Tuppen
Between the Fields.
On view now at Etage Projects, Copenhagen. 11 April – 6 June 2026.
“Freddy Tuppen’s luminous lights emerge as contemporary monoliths: atmospheric objects that seem to glow from within. Through coloured veils and layered diffusion, they inhabit a threshold between visibility and obscurity, inviting reflection on time, perception, and the unseen.” -
Between the Fields, curatorial text.
A brief visit to the studio. Tuppen builds in sapele, London plane, aluminium and painted calico - humble, honest materials arranged into stacked shade modules and slender lattices. The work is process driven: a timber frame before the veil, a palette of painted calico strips, a collected shelf of stones and driftwood that the lamps quietly echo.
Swipe through the bare frame, the collected materials, the calico colour tests, a stacked shade by the studio window, and the assembled totem. The carousel closes on the finished floor lamp and pendant, and on the gallery itself at night.
Freddy Tuppen is a London-based artist and designer who embraces the plural and the process-driven. His work moves between architecture, furniture, lighting and small objects - guided by constraints as possibilities, and by the physical experience of making. Presented alongside Tomoya Matsuzaki.
