BackstocK
Everyday objects are reduced to basic shapes and lack marketing messages, color and branding. Text from product descriptions or advertising is re-inserted which blurs the line between the objects, how they are used and our connections to everyday goods.
Color palettes, inspired by packaging, are woven together in repetitive marks that show irregularities like handmade tapestries rather than factory made goods.
