THE FOUND OBJECT:
tiny porcelain bowl with mystery powder outside Japanese restaurant
THE INSTALLATION IDEA:
i'd like to place this tiny bowl on a high table on the sidewalk and perhaps glorify and enhance its miniature existence with a desk lamp, highlighting only the bowl and the substance it carries. i want it to evoke curiosity and question... what is the meaning of this bowl? it is random? cultural? i will have to offer a hint, perhaps a menu, as to where it came from... but more so, i'd like it to raise thoughts about the possibility of the object alone... what purpose it serves. how it may be filled, emptied, washed, re-used, etc. what is inside the bowl offers a new set of possibilities. overall, i'd like to bring attention to this tiny out of place object, and force people to place it, somewhere in their minds.
this is just a rough idea.
