Catalogue: Life As Tableware

By | 23 September 2001

accessorise with simple, elegant shapes
choose muted bones, the subtle variations of sin
harvested from the last century

the alluring sparkle of toenails and teeth
and the reflective qualities of glazed eyes
mix well with hair
shorn from a passive
human animal
to be woven into the fabric of your life

Item:
A bound foot in classic white china
suitable for any occasion: $9.00

A pair of ankles
shaped into aluminium platters
Small $16.95, large $44.95

Wrinkled knees of hand-woven
cotton and fragrant vestier reed. $16.95

The pelvis makes an ideal drinks trolley
or side table. Drak cherry, 54 cm diameter. $129

The torso has a mirrored
black plate to reflect and increase
the drama of the spine. $27.95

The head, a contemporary form in silver-
painted timber. Small, $82, large $125

smoothly polished aluminium inside,
a charcoal finish outside. $119
