Science of the Secondary #13 Rubbish / Atelier HOKO
$20.00
“It is true that the pleasures of consumption have always been accompanied by the burdens of rubbish. This can be considered a modern problem facing human beings today. Rubbish is integral and almost inseparable from the basic functions of our everyday. From the moment we reach out for a piece of tissue to the yearly ritual of unwrapping gifts, we produce rubbish so effortlessly (and sometimes unknowingly). Yet, neither its near-infinite variety of forms nor its ambiguous definition reflect the near-universal approaches we have all adapted towards the handling of rubbish…”
‘Science of the Secondary: Rubbish’ is the thirteenth edition in the series of ongoing research conceived and developed by Atelier HOKO.

Artist Info
Atelier HOKO (2009) is an independent research lab focusing on investigations towards material and immaterial conditions that make up our experience of the everyday. The programme is developed in response to questions on how the role and practice of design today can move beyond its perceived perimeters. The atelier hopes to cultivate an open-ness and ability to un-know, bringing about a heightened curiosity towards all phenomena which can lead to potential applications within the creative field. Part of design studio, HOKO founded in 2002 by Alvin Ho and Clara Koh.
