This Project came about for an assignment I did while studying at massey university. The outcome of the project was to create a object in which you could place an egg inside and the object would securely support and protect the egg.

I decided to use the egg as my point of interest, in regards to the aesthetic and purpose of the object. With the imagery of the object I am trying to convey a sense of entrapment and isolation , that I relate to the egg's struggle, ultimately the chicken. I am very much against animal cruelty and the cliche, hating chicken farms and the injustices that battery hens indure. This relates to my object how? Well because the chickens are breed in such torturous, confined conditions, without the simple aspects of a farm chicken potting about at your uncles farm. My object reflects the hostile, disgusting way the battery hens are kept to feed us humans, yet they produce these perfect big oval incredible edible egg, as does my object minus the part about creating them, it just keeps them safe.
