Bottle 2

Concrete, textiles, wires, varnish on a hot water bottle

35 x 20 cm

 

A small objekt from concrete and textile on a hot water bottle. the use of concrete and textile is showing the contrast between the hard and soft, the rough and smooth. The use of concrete is interesting me because it is a material that is often associated with construction and permanence. However, the textile softens the concrete and makes it seem more organic. The placement of the bottle on the wall is it challenges our expectations of how a hot water bottle should be used. The bottle is not being used to keep us warm, but rather it is being used as a sculptural element.
