My first major experiment with #egyptainpaste . "But if ambitious art that seeks to work against capitalism's tendency towards the fragmentation and alienation of its subjects has embedded within its logic the means of capitalism's further penetration and expansion, I wonder if we could imagine the reverse. That is, can art that serves the needs of capital, is complicit in compliant with its demands, carry within its logic alternative possibilities, keys to the undoing of the nightmare? Maybe the prospect of an answer to this question is why I find some provisional comfort in shopping, why I put faith in it as a form of cultural participation even if I know better."

“Every object thus has two functions - to be put to use and to be possessed. At one extreme, the strictly practical object acquires a social status: this is the case with the machine. At the opposite extreme, the pure object, devoid of any function or completely abstracted from its use, takes on a strictly subjective status: it becomes part of a collection.” Baudrillard from The System of Objects. . . . . #uofinearts #uocollegeofdesign #uoceramics #ceramics #ceramicfurniture #ceramicsculpture #object #objectart #stairs #ceramicdesign #design #objectdesign (at Eugene, Oregon)

"Through personal acts of design, we transformed otherwise Anonymous, commonplace things and spaces of everyday life into our own things and places. Through our design, we transform houses into homes, spaces into places, things into belongings. While we might not have control over the design of the many objects we purchase, we do control which we select and how, where and when they are to be used."
