Rubbish Cup
One 3d-printed ceramic mug, sized about right for a tall coffee, with a coaster made from a reincarnated skateboard deck.
The coaster surface is intricately carved to reveal the brightly colored maple plies within a given stack of skateboards, making each completely unique, and baring occasional signs of its action-packed former life. Wood is sealed with a food-safe and solvent-free hardwax finish.
5-3/4" x 4” x 3-3/4”h
Rubbish Cup is part of the Useless Wooden Joys series of objects, focused on found and post-extractive materials, exhibited in 2024 at the KMAC Contemporary Art Museum. It is named in reference to the 1989 World Industries skate video, which you should watch here.
