apronThis assignment was about brainstorming the embeddedness of a chosen apron in the world, and the world within the object. I chose a specific butchers bleus de travail from 2002-2003.

This apron that I made is the attempt of translating the confusing emotions the original apron gives me. Within the butchers apron I found a paradoxal theme about protectiveness for themselves (metal harness etc) while cutting in a another creature. This I intertwined with the going-to-the-butcher’s experience I had when I went to the butcher while I was young with my mom. She used to tell me out of safety don’t accept anything from strangers, but the butcher was an exceptional case which for me made no sense back then. These two factors gave me the overlapped theme of safety and this apron is my physical translation of that.
