Rogers, Ab, 2011, Show, Exhibition or Event, A Day in the Life of Ernesto Bones
Abstract or Description: | Using the Surrealist ‘exquisite corpse’ method, and with a photograph of a household object from the Stanley Picker House (Kingston University) by John Short as inspiration, Rogers asked 24 contributors, among them chef Heston Blumenthal, fashion designer Shelley Fox, and Design Museum Director Deyan Sudjic, each to write the story of a single hour in the life of the fictional Ernesto Bones. To construct the story, the last two sentences of each contributor’s text were sent on to form the starting point for the next person in the chain. Rogers interpreted these stories to create a surrealist installation of designed objects. |
