| dc.description.abstract | A rectangular handle transforms into interlocked leafy scales and a cylindrical interior warps and bulges as if a scarab from The Mummy is crawling beneath its surface. Thick batter-like splats of raucous color melt and flow together as the mouth salivates, confused and yearning for a taste. An armchair appears to have contracted psychedelic leprosy and is coated in piles of foaming moss green and dripping coral red. A mug sports a sled instead of a foot-ring, and its elongated volume is flooded with a pool of glassy ice, submerged white orbs poke out from the unyielding yet revealing surface. The parts are all there, a handle to hold, a lip to drink from, a protruding armrest, yet they are all tweaked and mutated. The object is recognizable but is pushed so far from its archetype that it appears alien. | en_US |
