Second Lives- Remixing The Ordinary

Material and shape




Sometimes material and shape build the stereotype, label the function and name to everything you see in your life. But who told you to recognize the fork as a dinnerware but a sharp little weapon? Or even that little stuff isn't necessary be called "Fork". There are so many possibilities in our lives, with different perspective life could be not that normal.

I visited the museum last Thursday(free donation 18:00 each Thur.), I'm really surprised that the beauty is just around us. Some art projects was built by a pile of pots and pans; some sculpture were made of used books. That night, after seeing the exhibition, I started to think my shoes is not shoes and my bag could be an art piece too. The inspiration and imagination was aroused instantly.

When designing things, I always think of "logic" and "reason" for a design, maybe I should rethink the logic of art and explore more my imagination world.
