A familiar domestic gesture of drinking becomes slightly intimate and awkward at the same time. The moment of contact hovers between affection and embarrassment.

Through subtle anthropomorphism, the objects explore how everyday tools can acquire bodily qualities and provoke unexpected emotional responses to synthetic material as it was real.
