3204 _ COLLECTED GREENERY / GREEN ENVY

Collected Greenery

StudioJanaFlohr. for Stg Groene Honden Jong Ontwerp - 2009 - mdf, paper, various materials - exhibitiondesign / product design

 

Collected Greenery is a collection of green objects that has been gathered over a period of five months.
None of the exhibited pieces is without a story.
The greater part of these pieces have served their owners loyally for years and years, until eventually they went out of fashion, and, after a few years in a dusty cupboard, were shipped to the nearest thrift store.
Maybe some of the pieces were somebody’s most treasured possession, that were not recognized by surviving relatives who had to get rid of their grandmothers ‘rubbish’.
Other pieces might not have had their chance to shine yet, they were once heartfelt presents, being totally misunderstood , and thrown out immediately.

All these pieces have one thing in common: they are green.
Because of this shallow and apparently random feature the objects form a new family that is worthy of a second chance in the spotlight as part of ‘Collected Greenery’
