This exercise sought to take familiar objects and transpose their form and material as a way to collapse the concepts of time, reality, and perception. We’re examining habits of daily use through the disruption of ritual behavior.
The individual apparatus is a site specific, palpable depiction of the interaction between the hand and the object. It examines moments of daily life: the moment of contact between object and user serves as a method of disrupting habits of use. These tactile photographs create comprehension of the act by removing the body and the object. The iterative qualities of this study result in permutable forms.
