The Design museum Gent, which originates from a private initiative by a group of industrials and art lovers formed in 1903, turned into a museum managing a collection of approximately 22,000 objects that will be transferred to the new central heritage storage facilities of the city in the Ghelamco arena in 2018. At Object Stories, the Design museum Gent featured the film by designer and filmmaker Alexandre Humbert on this spectacular relocation of the collection, enabling visitors to catch a glimpse behind the scenes of a collection and its stories.

For the 6th Guangzhou Triennial, MacGuffin joined forces with filmmaker Alexandre Humbert and local students to collect objects that represent the resourcefulness and “life hacks” of different cultures in Guangzhou. Their union is celebrated in a Guangzhou wedding of things.
