Organization as Art

No Gravatar

Who said organizing isn’t fun!?  Swedish artist, Michael Johansson, has found a creative way to put order to very ordinary things.  He repurposes familiar yet unrelated items by combining them to make organized, 3D sculptures.  Notice how he puts particular focus on shape and color.  It’s a very interesting take on organization as art…or perhaps, formerly useful items as art…

I am fascinated walking around flea markets finding doubles of seemingly unique, though often useless objects I have already purchased at another flea market. Despite the fact that I did not have any use for them even the first time, the desire to own two of these objects becomes too strong to resist. ~Michael Johansson

I am intrigued by irregularities in daily life. Not those that appear when something extraordinary occurs, but those that are created by an exaggerated form of regularity. ~Michael Johansson
