Rytualnik

The function of the Rytualnik (Rytualist) is to support our rituals. The object is used to burn, for example, sage or incense. With the help of calming practices such as meditation, we can connect with our personal subconscious and, thanks to the NFC tag hidden in the object, also with the collective subconscious – belonging to a virtual community, to which the object will transfer us when we bring our phone close to it. In the digital world, RYTUALNIK reveals its second, extended function, which is to access data collected during the artistic and design process about potential scenarios of the near future. By investing in this object, you are joining a collective investigation related to the interpenetration of the analogue and virtual worlds.

Objects were made in limited series of 30, available to buy during Gdynia Design Days Festival 2022.
