Interview With: @louis.eager Louis Eager is a multi-disciplinary designer and maker working within the realms of furniture, products, and occasionally clothing. He tends to art-direct his projects with the use of photography and drawing to communicate ideas. Describing himself as an Adhocist and often making things using readymades or found objects. He uses these objects in new contexts to challenge the way people perceive the made world. Eager's designs are in the realm of ready-made and garner around the concept of making us humans question things and expand the way we tend to think. His works show the multiple ways we can take advantage of things that seem useless to a majority of people and bring out new mental passages of through within a physical object. He has recently finished his degree project called “Doorknobs, Bath Plugs and Flamingoes” which acts as manifesto for future work involving Adhocism and working with readymades. Topics we touch on: personifying inanimate objects, revaluing standard things, being cautious of “sustainable design”, the crossover between furniture and art --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/10p/message
