Tools for Problems Real and Imagined is a collection of furniture and tool-like objects that play with the idea of functionality by inventing solutions for problems that don’t exist, and carrying solutions for real problems to absurd or impossible ends. Both fanciful and impractical, the pieces invite the viewers to imagine equally fanciful contexts and potential applications.
