Rachel Jamieson

Rachel's treasured object was her son Reece's first boxing trophy, which is on display in his room. Rachel has a strong sense of interior design; the colour red and reflective surfaces dominate the decor in her living room. The two green cubes, with their featureless matt finish, were intended as an equally striking counterpoint, challenging the harmony of the carefully constructed interior. The cubes, which reference modern art movements including Minimalism, were made to be interactive for Rachel to position in her home according to her sense of design, which she did, displaying them prominently alongside her own decorative objects. An unexpected outcome of this process was that Reece took one of the cubes to display in his own room thus uniting the boxing trophy and the cube.
