Interesting Process
Amateur Furniture
Artist: Jerszy Seymour
Date: 2009
Medium: Hand Moldable Wax, Everyday Materials
This piece reflects the process Jerszy initially underwent as he began to explore the industrial techniques demonstrated in many of his more recent works such as "Living Systems" (2007). Art Papers describes this initial process in which he fabricated all the basic objects he needed in the seclusion of an empty room. Using a "chromaticaly high-keyed plastic made from potatoes, acohol and milk in addition to sand and clays casts" Jerszy's process "revived industrial techniques and initiated an individual economy independent of both the substantial capital investment and the expected profits that bookend object production in the design economy".
