The brief for this project was to pick something from Rijksstudio that relates to my art in some way, and then create work from it.
Since being interested with anything of value, or luxury, I chose this 'wine and fountain cooler' by Alger Mensma, 1731 - 1732. 'The wine fountain and the cooler used to rinse one's hands and wine glasses, formed the decorative centrepiece of a lavish buffet.'
I think it works with the consumer/ consumed idea i'm looking into at the moment, so ways I could work with this would be to deconstruct it/ consume it in some way.
Final production of work:
