Thinking about buying a coffee today? Here’s a fun quiz to help you get the order just right
1. What percent of paper cups is plastic?
2. Which is better for you, animal welfare and the environment?
a, Rice milk
b, Cow milk
c, Soy milk
d, Almond milk
e, No milk
3. What percent of paper cups get recycled?
4. How many ‘paper’ cups are thrown away every day?
Mimicking single-use paper cups in permanent ceramic, Intimate Objects replaces standard milk options with a quiz on environmental facts. The work explores the weight of eco-anxiety—the constant mental fatigue of trying to make ethical choices in a world where every decision carries a hidden cost.
As a maker using mined materials and high-heat kilns, I am not outside this problem; I am complicit in it. By translating the deceptive lightness of paper into the heavy reality of fired clay, Intimate Objects intimates the inescapable friction between human desire, material footprint, and daily consumption.
