Pet Objects 2, now on display , is a new iteration of an ongoing research project which seeks to re-imagine our relationships and stories with our household objects, amplifying the odd sensation that inanimate “things” just may, possibly, have a soul, or feelings.
The form is derived from a multi-step process exploiting the possibilities of both analogue and digital craft. An initial form was created by casting plaster in spandex, which was then 3D scanned into a digital model, essentially granting us unlimited control to manipulate its form. The initial model was repeatedly copied and rotated along a central axis, then stretched upwards, allowing for a new shape to emerge. The final piece resists categorization - it’s both singular and plural, and it feels architectural yet also like a living being.
Huge thanks to and for the support!!
