Artist Statement for John Suri
|
|
|
These three lamps constructed from stainless steel paper clips, retaining rings and stainless steel guitar picks weigh 3 lbs. and possess a 3/4' diameter.
These functional pieces share unique abilities. Their woven intricacy (without glue or solder) make the commonplace objects unrecognizable at first sight, creating a nice suprise for the first time viewer.
In addition, these functional pieces are infinitely repairable, reconstructible and configurable since the commonplace objects are unaltered--they can even be reused for their original purpose.
I also weave other commonplace objects like computer paper, bobby pins and pennies to form lamps, tables and wall screens.
