Houses and Cats





Hello all,

It has been a while that I have actually had the time to update my blog. There has been dissertation handing ins, new projects at the University (such as Leonardo Da Vinci Project for the Museum of Science and Industry, but about that in a weeks time). There is also such an exciting thing going on in Manchester as TAA (Temporary Autonomous Arts) which has taken my time and interest, I am still on process to make things in there and photographing the happenings, so that as well, is going to be its own chapter in few days.

I thought, I would put some crafty things up, which I have made earlier this year. They were all actually a part of the exhibition called "These Thursdays" (in Salford, From Space) where the theme was shopping. My work, including these knitted pieces was design a re-package for products that already where in the supermarket. I set this concept for myself, when I was thinking what to do for the theme shopping. I decided to go shopping, and then I bought cheap things from the Supermarket and designed fancy packaging for them and that then added more value for the pieces.

The houses and the cat are all packaging for tea.

  2. Those teabags were ace!! People in the baths and buses, I thought first that those people were like cooking in a pot or something. It was just coming from your work you have showed me about cannibals.
