Sculptures by Jaime Pitarch

April 11, 2017 by Arseny Vesnin in Art, Spain, Portfolios, Sculpture, 2017

Jaime Pitarch creates sculptures, drawings, videos and installations often using humble everyday objects such as a guitar, chair, or household and consumer products. He employs inventive strategies of displacement, re-contextualization and visual punning to peel away at their routine uses and meanings to alter our relationship with such utilitarian items.

Pitarch describes his work as mainly having “… to do with the human being’s inability to identify with the structures he himself has created.” Having been stripped of their functionality, we are free to view them in the alternative narratives the artist provides.

March 31, 2017 by Arseny Vesnin in Design, Portfolios, United Kingdom, 2017

StolenForm is a concept brand that specialises in repurposing industrialised objects, transforming them into ceramic home accessories and giftware products.

Christian Marsden is the designer-maker behind StolenForm and has long been inspired by the urban environment.
