I started thinking about sequencing of the objects. I started out with something small that we use rather regularly. I chose to look at how a spoon is used when I make coffee in the morning. I started in grayscale so I was more focused on the form of the object over the aesthetics of it.

maybe you can make some spoons. a periodic table of spoons. spoons that don't exist yet, but should...
I'm remembering, there's a page or two of text in the Jasper Morrison Book of Spoons, either in beginning or end of the book. easily missed!
ReplyDeleteI think it's always good to linger around a specific idea, i.e. (in this instance) spoons, for a while. maybe consider different meanings/senses of spoon ("spooning" for example), etymology (surprising to me : https://www.etymonline.com/word/spoon ) etc etc.
