Martin Puryear review


I didn’t like his work. I couldn’t figure out what it was or what it was supposed to be used for.  Design should serve a purpose and that purpose should be clear. The functionality of his objects was not clear. They had a very clean look to them, but with the way they were shaped you still couldn’t figure out what they were for. Also you couldn’t tell where you would put them or what kind of environment you would put them in. If I had to guess I would guess he was going for an outdoor theme because of the ladder and he had a lot of rock shaped objects. Also most of his objects were smooth. It reminds me of an Asian American and I can see these objects with a running river or to help the fung shway of a place. I can imagine a fresh clean outdoors smell with his collection. The shapes are all irregular shapes.
