MENTAL MATTER
tool for abstraction, porcelain tableware
“But how we begin to generate, from matter, the pictures in our brain?” A.Damasio
Mental Matter is a set of objects intended to be used by people around a table, in order to support a dialogue at it’s visual and tactile aspect, or the level of abstraction. Each item is able to serve functions of dining or drinking. Each composition of items is able to interpret a meaning that emerges into the discussion, when words fail to describe it.
describing a space that we visited.
actions performed in such space.
an accident with our bike.
an abstract concept.
or the way a process is running.
