It depends on my mood, but I always appreciate those things that express complex ideas through the simplest means .. like maths, direct language and analogies.. Not to say that I am good at any of those. I'd say that Michael Anastassiades' work is a prime example of this. Conceptually motivated but communicated through the purest of means, It's like comparing a haiku and a sonnet - a metaphor and a verbosequasitryhardwannabeintellectualrambling... I find it really very emotive. The Social light and the anti-social light.
The social light is based on a heart-warming idea, glowing only when there is conversation in the surrounding environment. Conversely, the Anti-social light only glows in complete silence, noise causes the light to dim and eventually switch off.
The Message Cup - a portable, mobile voice recording and playback device, designed for message exchanges in the household. Individuals record and playback messages by turning the cup up and down.
Michael Anastassiades' foray's into jewellery - Bronze and Swarovski crystal rings ...
Geometric, multi-faceted and different from every angle.. Beautiful in so many ways.
