Tim + Henry's Pack of Cups
Two 3d-printed ceramic cups, sized about right for a glass of sake, with a coaster built for both 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.
each cup: 2-3/4” dia. x 2-1/2”h
coaster: 3-1/2” x 6 1/2” x 3/8”h
Tim + Henry’s Pack of Cups 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 1992 Blind Skateboards video, which you should watch here.
