On 19 March 2026, Innenkreis opens in Copenhagen as a new gallery that deliberately places contemporary functional works in dialogue with historical positions of the decorative arts created before 1940. The inaugural exhibition, »Raiments,« presents the work of Danish designer Lærke Ryom, whose practice is defined by a material-driven, craft-based approach to furniture. With this concept, founder Zeynep Rekkali Jensen connects contemporary design positions with historical references, establishing a curatorial framework that understands functional objects as part of an ongoing cultural dialogue. In conversation with Chapter, she discusses the idea behind the gallery, her curatorial perspective, and broader questions of how design and craft can be communicated today.
