Ok, itās true.
I lovvvve nice objects ā¤ļø.
I look at them and my head goes boom.
Because my thoughts not only go the object in itself.
Iām also amazed by:
the magical idea of the maker
the courage to put the idea into an actual object
the hard work & long process to produce the object - once or maybe a million times
the guts of the maker to put the object - and a piece of their soul - out in the open
What do you think? Canāt we all learn something from their bravery? I thought so too!
Itās actually really hard. During the long process from idea to real object, makers often struggle with self-doubt.
They invest a lot of time & resources in designing and producing. Only to put the object away on a dusty shelf, ācause:
who will be interested in this?
is this even good enough to enter a gallery or exhibition?
and if so: how will I manage to get my object over there?
how do I even start to āmarketā an object?
can I put an object into mass production without betraying myself as an artist/designer?
Do you smell the anxious stress sweat? I do! And my heart breaks because we - the public - miss out on all the cool stuff.
I would want to shout - but I donāt, ācause I donāt like shouting, so I write it - Stop sweating, I WILL HELP YOU make decisions, take steps, get your cool stuff out in the world!
Please spread these words to all makers you know so we can make this world a more aesthetic place šš¼.
Speaking of helping out.
