The Couch of Many Colors

It’s festive…it’s arty…it’s…like something someone in my neighborhood would put out on the lawn. Minus the dingle balls. I don’t think I have ever seen dingle balls on any furniture around here.

Bonus: it clashes with everything in equal proportions.

Yeah, but does it go with the curtains?

I work in an industry with a high BS factor. The writing I wade through every day would make junior high school English teachers weep with rage. But, as it turns out, I got nothin’.

Paint Chip Yeah, but does it go with the curtains?

Using the combination of color & language, I involved cultural and personal problematics into this utopian equation attempting to suppress or contain large, unruly aspects of popular culture and daily life into small, manageable squares. The color chips gradate per usual, but their names, a mix of literal and ephemeral associations, create juxtapositions filled with awkward tension and dark humor, questioning what we desire and why we desire it.

I need to get me one a them art school eddications.

Branding is Everything

I don’t care. No matter how much you try to call this “human ivory,” it’s still fingernail clippings to me. No, seriously. Fingernail clippings.

My, How…Rustic

Have I ever mentioned my loathing for most things made of mason jars? Ok, then.
Goat Yoke light My, How...Rustic
It’s a light fixture. Made out of a goat yoke. And some mason jars. Just add some chairs made of John Deere tractor seats and you’ve got yourself a theme.
