The familiar still has something to say.
We live alongside objects so closely that they can become invisible. The chair pulled up to the table. The pitcher passed from hand to hand. The lamp that stays on after everyone else has gone to bed.
Common Things is an independent creative study of those familiar companions. It starts with a simple question: what changes when we give an everyday object our full attention?
This first volume brings together six imagined objects, original illustrations and a field note. It is a collection of observations, offered at the pace of a second look.
