about Forman Function
Employing a variety of techniques Forman Function strives to provide unique, handcrafted objects that can exist both as user friendly items and sculpture. The designs are inspired by the search for something Forman refers to as the “wiggle” - instances in which materials, objects, or people no longer have defined limitations and can fluctuate between hard and soft, rigid or flexible. The idea that perhaps all materials could – and should – be questioned in this manner, pressed to reveal their limitations and breaking points, opens up a world of fascinating possibilities.
If glass can be s t r e t c h y and gooey then splinter in the following instant, perhaps foam could shatter or cardboard could inflate.
Currently, Gayle is located in Brooklyn, NY, researching and developing new works and ideas. To find available products, visit the brand new Forman Function Webstore or check out these fabulous stockists up and down the East Coast of the U.S.A!
