My first assignment for the sculpture class was to make found objects sculpture. I was thinking a lot what to use for this project, and my final choice was: an apple, an usb cable, one hanger, a bit of tiny wire and small piece of clay.
First thing i did was " USB apple".
This idea was mainly about new technologies and how we should use them. The main idea was that you plug an apple in your computer, and it's growing, and you have it ready every day you wake up. Or it can be a vitamin-recharge. Or a way to prolong freshness.
The second thing that came in my mind was a hanger, and how should i use it for something different that just hanging a clothes. I find wire hangers extremely boring, i prefer those girly hangers with bows and floral textures, made of silk and so on, but this wire hanger served for something a bit different.

First, he's hot a nice clay head with horns of wire, so it became a hanger deer used for different things. Before eating an usb apple, i decided to play a little bit more with it, so i made this deer apple holder.
Continuing my hanger-experiment, i started to think of juxtaposition. So i wanted to find another purpose for the hanger. I was thinking that i could use it again to hold something, so i made this paper holder for my studio, because i really needed to keep my papers in some order.

And it's working pretty well. It still has a deer head, and it's making me laugh when I'm looking at it. I think that playing with found objects can be really interesting, just important thing is not to plan what you want to find. Because it's ruining your curiosity and experiments.
Now i can eat my apple, and later plug it in my computer so it will grow for tomorrow.
