Everyday Objects

Everyday Objects, sculpture, 2009
A  suite of sculptural objects fashioned from a set of domestic items, such as a cutting boards, aprons, knives, spoons, tote bags and picnic tables.  All of them are things Fallen Fruit uses in picking fruit or its Public Fruit Jams, except each in engraved with text we have “harvested” from comments viewers have left for us on YouTube.  The cynical phrases range from “fucked in the head californians” to “dipshit liberals, always looking for a handout.”  Everyday Objects poise the cheerful domesticity of the objects against the cynicism of an anonymous public.
