OBJECTS OF INFLUENCE

Series of promotional objects / Sculptures in circulation, 2026

Lighter, deck of cards, pen and T-shirt.
Manufactured objects, prints and editions.

Developed in response to the lack of funding for my ongoing research into responsibilities associated with the edible, Objects of Influence uses the formats and strategies of promotional merchandise as sculptural operations.

The series consists of four manufactured objects — a lighter, a deck of cards, a pen and a T-shirt — carrying slogans, images and narratives drawn from advertising and political communication.

Designed to be used, worn, exchanged or purchased, these objects operate simultaneously as carriers of discourse and potential sources of funding for further research.

Through their manufacture, distribution and circulation, Objects of Influence questions how sculpture can produce influence and economic value beyond its physical form.
