fsmomaha.com “28” Knives, spoons, forks, wax, string By Jamie Danielle Hardy 2013 Photographed by David Ahlquist In this work ,“28”, I am focusing on the moment when youth confronts age, where fuel turns into power. I took 10 second videos of my plate after eating 28 meals. I then hung this cutlery in the windows of Petshop gallery – as a way of introducing the viewer to the work – cleansing the palette in a way. 28 sets of knives,spoons and forks, all coated in wax – preserve the memory of the meal and absolve these tools of their potential. – Jamie Danielle Hardy 19
