Solutions for Better Living is like a shop window from some future. By repurposing household objects and materials of utility, practical objects are transformed into futile forms. Neither scientific in their method of construction nor overtly functional, the resultant sculptures take everyday, familiar implements, like small household appliances and gardening accessories and rework them into new systems. While the objects’ original uses are obstructed, new functions and new possibilities emerge as each part interacts within the newly formed whole.

Presented in partnership with the Marion Nicoll Gallery.
