'The Imaginary watchmaker' project

This was about what a tool is- and I think, to make us see that everything can be a tool. One dictionary definition is: Something used as a means of achieving something. So first we had to draw 5 tools and their uses.


1: the hand.
2: the drawing.
3: the eye.


4: the name.
5: the flute.

And then we had to make our own tool. These are a few sketchbook pages to figure out what to do.

I decided to make bread as a tool that fills up the belly- and I added pieces of paper (with instructions from Yoko Ono's Grapefruit book) inside the bread buns, to fill up the mind. I don't usually make things like this, but I actually enjoyed it. With drawings, you can never be sure you will change someone's mind/heart, but with bread, you're sure to fill up hunger.


Finally we had to quickly make a guide to our tool.
