OUT TO LUNCH

Out to Lunch Embroidery floss on Vinyl

Out to Lunch: not connected or in touch with the real world; absentminded or uniformed. This piece is the result of translating my ideas into a product. The bag is a more lighthearted work about being lost in thought. This playful bag will show all.

The bag is decorated with small lines of color. The embroidery is bright and fun, representing the small passing happy thoughts the mind drifts to throughout the day. Each one trails off to nothing  depicting the transient nature of this kind of thinking. The shape of the bag is cylindrical in order to demonstrate the continuity of cognition. This product is made from vinyl, the material is sturdy, but at same time easily pliable with heat. Much like the mind: firm, but impressionable with pressure. The transparency of the object is an encouragement to be forthright with sharing thoughts and feelings.
