This issue is a collaboration with Los Angeles artists Rachel Jackson and Brandon Brandy, focusing on Memphis furniture and bootleg zines. At first glance, this zine may seem like a home furnishings catalog. However, all the images inside were randomly generated in AI software through keyword commands. The artists use this to explore the possibility that the paradigm of design styles can be transcended by AI. The supplementary product for this issue is an oversized fridge magnet modeled after the "Anonymous Author's Memphis Palm Tree Lamp." Its magical effect can instantly transform your home décor to the Memphis style.
about EggPlant鹅卵茄
在对 “eggplant“ 英文一词的凝视中，我们意识到茄子的命名可能是由一颗形似鹅蛋的白茄子而来，这个单词成型背后包含了类型学，造词现象，图像翻译等可发散讨论的方向。受此启发，我们将EggPlant译为鹅卵茄。鹅卵茄旨在发现艺术家和个人，共同探索艺术和商品之间的缝隙的可能性。
Staring at the term “eggplant” , we realized its name likely got from a white oval aubergine in 19 century. The structure of the term could extend to a discussion of typology, phenomenon of coinage and image translation, and so on. Inspired by this mishmash experience, EggPlant aims to collaborate with artists and creative individuals to explore the possibility of the niche between art and merchandise.
