Objects of Desire: Surrealism and Design 1924-Today

(October 2022 – February 2023)

 

Delve into the dreamlike relationship between Surrealism and design in this century spanning celebration of Surrealist objects of desire.

Curated with Vitra Design Museum, the exhibition explores design from the birth of surrealism in 1924 to the current day; spanning classic Surrealist works of art and design as well as contemporary Surrealist responses. 

The exhibition uncovers how one of the 20th century's most influential movements came to impact design through its questioning of the conventional and its commitment to exploring the mind, unconscious and mystical. 

It brings together the best in Surrealist design, from furniture, interior design, fashion, photography and world-renowned artworks from Surrealist pioneers such as Salvador Dalí, Dora Maar, Man Ray, Leonora Carrington and Lee Miller, through to contemporary artists and designs, such as Schiaparelli, Dior, Björk.  

The result is an exhibition filled with playful, curious and poetic objects that uncover the rich history of Surrealism and its fascinating influence on design.

Our current Sculpture project brief is a fairly open one; it asks that we explore objects in relation to a site or sites.

 

Aside from the set work I have created this locker in response to the dire lack of space and secure storage on my course.

 

The locker is created entirely from scrap timber and fittings and was fun to make. One of my tutors suggested that as a bespoke object it could be considered ‘Sculpture’.

 

I do find it a pleasing object, and to some extent it does provide an elegant grounded response to the brief. It is essentially an intermediary between the (objects) I give importance to and the uncertain and chaotic space/(site) of our studio.

 

Are you sure it's wise to climb up this these stairs, Sailo?

A Truman Capote Reader

 

I left Manchester in the Autumn of 1990 and this somehow found its way into a box of books that moved with me.

I kept telling myself that I would send it on to the library with a note of apology but never got around to it.

 

I love this book.

 

I still feel guilty.

"You know you turn me on

Eyes so white and legs so long

But don't try to talk to me

I won't listen to your lies

You're just an object in my eyes

You're just an object in my eyes

 

Sophisticated smile

You seduce in such fine style

But don't try to fool me

'cause I can see through your disguise

You're just an object in my eyes

You're just an object in my eyes

 

But I don't mind

I just don't care

I've got no objection

To you touching me there

 

Object object

Object object

Object object

Object object

 

You know just what to do

Lick your lips

And I want you

But don't try to hold me

'cause I don't want any ties

You're just an object in my eyes

You're just an object in my eyes

 

But I don't mind

I just don't care

I've got no objections

To you touching me there

You're just an object object

Object object

You're just an object"

 

-The Cure

"Object"

 

I, on the other hand, happen to like ties. They make things all the more fun :) And trust me, you're not just an object. you could never be :)

 

I'm constantly questioning my mental sanity, but recently I've started questioning my physical sanity. My normality.

But in the sense, what is normal? Is there even a normal? Is "the norm" the total lack of individuality? Is normality the same as conformity? Because if it is, I want non of it.

 

Oh the change of subjects.

I do that a lot don't I?

Every subject I have has to change.

Can't make up my mind

 

I think I should mention my mind, the complicity of it. I question a lot of things. But I think overall I question myself. Will I ever be good enough to them? Could I possibly be good enough for him? Will I ever be good enough in my own eyes?

 

Do I doubt too much?

yes

Do I question too much?

definitely yes

Do I walk in circles too much?

mostly

Do I need to stop my nonsense?

100% yes

 

If you read this you're insane, because honestly I don't understand myself most of the time.

But try to figure me out, I'd appreciate it.

 

you got me :)

and I like it

~Project Details~

 

Pattern: Random Ankle Socks (off the internet)

 

Needles: Knit Picks US2

 

Yarn: Sockotta – Shades of Purple, Color #26

 

Cost: $8.50 (less than 1 ball - lots of yarn for booties!)

 

Size: 7/8

 

For: Nobody - they were practice socks! They will now be dust rags! LOL

 

Time: My motto – As long as you make it. Simple socks (ankle socks go fast!)

 

Modifications: None. I did magic loop (ML) even though the pattern was written for DPNs, so the instructions were reinterpreted for the ML method.

 

What I learned: How to ML!! Definitely have the hang of it now!

 

Verdict: Mmmh I would never use this pattern or yarn again. The sock was made in my size but the heel flap was too long (so I would shorten it) and the foot was not snug enough = too dang big. But I was just so excited about doing my 1st pair of socks!

 

I wanted to do something simple and easy since I knew I was going to be doing ML. It was a struggle to translate the pattern in the beginning, and I wish I didn’t wait as long to start on the 2nd one because obviously I forgot what the heck I did! LOL SSS Disease is real! And the only cure is to just plow thru the next one. :o) (which you may not want to do since I made so many mistakes! :op LOL)

 

As for the yarn I like Sockotta, but not for this pattern. I really like yarn that has some “cush” to it…not feeling it with Sockotta, so Cascade Fixation is still on my list for ankle socks.

 

Overall, not a perfect fit (or socks for that matter) but I am glad I did them! :o)
