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.

Found an old set of road wheels next to a public trash receptacle. They were in bad shape including the Shimano 105 hubs. The front hub was seized up with rust, wouldn't even turn. The rear hub wasn't in much better shape. But I scored two good old style Shimano skewers.
"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"

"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
