Sketches and first editions of my ashtray/coffee mug mashup are in the works this week. Ideas in mind include hollow handles to ash in. Going to play with shapes and sizes as forms get trimmed. Im also working on making stackable mug/ashtray combos and tea cup and plate inspired combos. I want to make a mug that has a lid that is an ashtray as well. I'm trying to incorporate texture.needing more studio time.
Trying to keeping in mind how to display these pieces as well. I like the idea of displaying them in a space like a cabinet, or maybe an openface cabinet like shelf, where they would normally be stored...hinting towards a ritual that is often overlooked when starting a daily routine. The ritual of actually choosing which mug to use.
Mugtrays...mug-rays...ash-ugs...ashtrugs....still working on a clever name for them.
