everybody knows
that a ladder is for climbing and leans against a wall,
that a clothes-hanger is for hanging clothes on and is hung itself,
that a stool is a slave and a porter,
that a fruit plate is for the table.

but wh

at happens
if the ladder does not lean against a wall ?
if the clothes-hanger does not hang but is perched ?
if the stool wants to become free of constraints ?
if the fruit hangs on the wall ?

then, I sometimes find
a p

aradoxical object, contradictory in itself,
a new logic, a new nature, a new story,
an object simple and complex at the same time,
a surprise at the second glance.
