Sandra Kit
Plastic, metal and mixed materials,
USA , Europe and Japan, 2020

Sandra plastic surgery kit was a revolutionary example
of domestic surgery. It became popular with large
numbers of ordinary people who were interested in building
self-confidence. It was, however, always controversial in
medicine circles, as people could perform procedures
( Abdominoplasty, Blepharoplasty, Mammoplasty, Labiaplasty,
Rhinoplasty, Otoplasty, Rhytidectomy, Suction-assisted
lipectomy, Chin augmentation, Cheek augmentation
and etc. ) without consulting with a specialist.
As a consequence a lot of deaths occurred.

A kit consists of : a mirror, face/body sanding, grating,
buffing, measuring, stretching, blade and  laser
cutting, suction and filling equipment.

The aim of this workshop is to create both objects and narrative contexts as one single outcome. During the development process the first would feed the second and one vice versa in order to achieve new kinds of product typology that would talk about possible futures and the way we picture and interpret them right now.

Starting from three or more objects from the 1 pound shop around the corner and then joining them togehter these objects, or just a part of them, through an intuitive exploration of shapes and the language of objects, would lead to ‘bizare’ and ‘imaginary’ constructs that are able to talk abstract uses away from more known typologies of use.

All the objects are painted white in order to erase, on one side, their ‘past lives’, as these are not meant to be understood as ready-mades but as objects in their own right.

My objects from 1 pound shop.

This projects was one week joint project , where second & third year students had a chance to meet and design together. I was working alongside of: Brittany Gragham (3rd year) and Danny Morgan, Alice B., Nicolette (2nd year). As a group we had to create 30 copies of  A5 size leaflet promoting our topic :Design is Pollution. Promoting our ideas, instead of 30 copies we made 110.Being a ‘bit cheeky’, playing with closed cards, without revealing our main arguments to our opponents: Design is NOT Pollution, we had few strong arguments ready for the big day: Friday 13 November.

This workshop was designed to help student to generate their starting points from which they could develop their final year major project. We were required to come up with 9o points of inspiration ranging in scale and type; encompassing whole areas of design whilst also focusing on small observations, situations, materials and processes.
