Through unification of a common element, the addition of a bandage or cast as a symbol of repair, has made the problem of random cutlery a problem no more. What could seem as just a temporary fix by Simon Rich has turned this discarded cutlery into eclectic new sets.
Produced by Dhiren Bhagwandas and Justin Hutchinson as part of the State of Design Festival, the Before & After project serves to provide new perspectives on discarded objects, in regard to social, cultural and environmental issues. Exhibited at Eat Green Design 08, the project displayed the work of a diverse group of Australian designers who reinterpreted objects for dining into valued pieces, providing a commentary on today’s consumer culture: “more thought less material”.
