More is Less

‘More’ is celebrating our behaviour with belongings. Allowing the practice of disposophobia to take place. Making form out of possessions creates ‘less’ original furniture. Structure is created by the way material is manipulated, material creates function.

“A quarter of the population said they had been forced to stop using a room because it was so full of stored possessions”, Simon Hattenstone, (on the life of an extreme hoarder; The Guardian, Saturday 28 March 2009).

My outcome is a process of suggested solutions which have created an alternative use for typically hoarded objects, considering ways to facilitate and manage the possessions, this is practised on individuals and their environment.
