How to displaying a clothes peg.
It all started as an experiment!
Initial work was concerned with display within exhibition design and explored ways in which the context in which objects are presented can be manipulated by the choice of materials, texture, colour and lighting. Through these studies I stumbled across the humble wooden clothes peg that was initially used as an inexpensive, throw away object to experiment with.
As work progressed I became more obsessed with the peg’s qualities – this simple utilitarian object is at once functional and aesthetically beautiful and deserves to be celebrated as a hero in its own right.
The result is a proposal for a touring exhibition about the wooden clothes peg, designed to tour the world taking up temporary residence in appropriate museums, galleries and showrooms.
