# Concrete Brass Sculptures Considered Objects by David Taylor Symbolizes Pure Escapism By Meghan Young | Published 2014-12-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/considered-objects References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/considered-objects-david-taylor) & [superdave.se](http://www.superdave.se/considered-objects/) The Considered Objects art series can be interpreted in a number of ways. In fact, some people might even mistake the items for [household objects and decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dpartment). Yet at the end of the day, the Considered Objects [sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neojomon-biomorphic-fantme) were created out of pure escapism. The artist behind the series shares, "During an intensive period of planning, delivering, meetings and deadlines ‘Considered Objects’ provided a free zone to focus on something else. Some jog, some do yoga, I returned to my workshop for an hour every other day to find peace in making. With each shift the pieces took shape, the result of a three-part conversation between hand, mind and material." Created by David Taylor, Considered Objects involves only [concrete and brass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancora). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Sculptures:** Create simple yet impactful sculptures using minimal materials like concrete and brass. - **Functional Art:** Blurring the line between art and everyday objects, transform household items into aesthetically pleasing sculptures. - **Art as Therapeutic Outlet:** Explore art as a form of escapism and therapeutic practice, providing a break from everyday pressures. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Sculpture:** Incorporate unconventional materials and techniques into traditional art forms to create unique and visually striking pieces. - **Home Decor:** Introduce functional sculptures into home decor, adding a touch of artistry to everyday objects. - **Wellness and Therapy:** Promote the therapeutic benefits of art-making as a tool for relaxation and stress relief. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Sculptural Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/city-block-series.md) - [Sculptural Knitted Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-knitted-objects.md) - [Artful Sculptural Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/massproductions-x-arket.md) - [Object Design-Explorative Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apartamento-secreto.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Upcycled Object Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-and-daniel-arsham.md) - [Sculptural Design Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition.md)
