Summary:

This text examines Zamp Kelp's career through studies of his performances, objects and architectural projects that illuminate his futuristic, sci-fi approach to design. Prospector compiles selections from the Zamp Kelp archive, contextualizing photography and text with collages, drawings and other ephemera. Biographical notes are presented alongside essays, some previously unpublished, that explore the subjects at the core of Zamp Kelp's work: architecture, landscape, space and virtuality.
