Having posted 2 NSFWs in a row, I thought it best to post something extremely safe for work, because you have to look at something to procrastinate plugging cleaning product sales data into an excel form 8 hours a day.
UK based artist Clare Strand‘s black and white photo series ‘Skirts’ photo-categorizes hired table skirts in a council-owned ballroom. These photos made me laugh so hard I nearly soiled my own skirt.
Anothermag had a chatter natter with Strand about Twin Peaks, table topology and the complex navigation of absurdity. You can also see the remainder of the pleated tabular photo series after the jump.
…because it’s mundane, kitsch and ceremonial all at once.
Why exactly is this funny?
