Lunchbox

As we discover objects with historical or personal significance, we expand our collection of Ghost Objects – items we’ve cast in resin. Our latest treasure is a beat-up steel lunchbox from the 1950s. For generations, children and workers carried their noon meal in everything from animal skins to wicker, often finding shade beneath a tree or sitting on a schoolhouse stoop to eat. As industrialization grew, the metal lunchbox evolved into a symbol of class status. This lunchbox, now immortalized in resin, captures the essence of a moment in time and personal memory.

Made by Creators of Objects

COUNTRY: CANADA

Creators of Objects is the Toronto-based collaborative studio project of Jonathan deSwaaf and Joanne Byrne.
Known for their cast resin work and commissioned installations, their collection includes furniture, accessories, objects and art.

Influenced by colour, light, transluscency and material exploration, they create familiar new forms while also taking impressions of everyday items, using new materials and juxtapositions that shift the perception of those objects.

Pieces are made one by one with a “future analog” approach that embraces experimentation, technology, precision, modern materials and processes blended with traditional practices that leave hand made traces and imperfections.
