| | yeah i know it's a long over due post. but it's been until just now i
remembered i had my product shots in my good ole' fuji digicam.
(haven't been using it much since i had my k750i)
my concept was to transfer intrinsic details and qualities from an (sometimes expensive )
object i own, onto cheap, affordable objects. (much like ripping mp3's from a CD you
bought and copying them.).
how would then my shoes become a table? my jeans become a wardrobe? my t-shirt become a chair?
anyhoo here they are.
"Sir Smith" Table
original pair of paul smith's
"Sir Smith" table. originally a dining table from the 2nd hand market.
lace net close-up. paul smith products tell small jokes via subverting details on stereotypes
(like the wingtip perforations on a "stan smith" for the shoe), so i
made this dining table into a "play/work" desk. this is the table in
its "decadent table-tennis" mode.
wingtip pattern blown up.
even the bats' handles are drilled with the motif.
hans and david having fun with my work.
this is the table in "work" mode. grid is 1cm squares for you to
measure stuff, lines are 0-90 degrees to measure angles and "bubbles"
are just circular template random drawings to
throw off the symmetry abit. just like paul.
cable management.
MNGSTR wardrobe
treasured pair of jeans.
got this fabric wardrobe from the local sundry store. so i made it more "functional
decoration" by adding a coat hook rack and mirror with the same language.
GRNPH chair
my favourite graniph t-shirt, now a chair.
i think i might continue this theme of "quality of objects" for my thesis next year. cos i like
nice things that are usually expensive and limited. hahaha. and for me, after this project,
it's less about the brands but more of the quality (craftsmanship or concept or both.). and
to get high quality or concept, it's either expensive obscure brands or rare flea-market
finds.
talking about things i want( and hence have bought...:P )
my latest possession!
it's a fabric bracelet with a gold rolex embroidered with gold thread and sequins.
for me, this is my most bling-est and most pimp-est.
oh it's by walter van beirendonck (the guy behind w & lt) by the way.
what's the time? it's always 10 past 10, 28th of some month, and it's a monday.
hahahaha..
laters guysssss
