Artist's Comments

Mechanical pencils and erasers. They come and go, generation after generation.
Because they get lost at some point.

I used to count the generations of some everyday supplies such as soaps. And speak to them.

"Hi, Ivory II."
"Hey, you're Ivory IX already! It's amazing how fast I use up you guys."

I don't anymore, but I used to.

LOL!!! (at the talking to soap part) that picture is great- the randomness of it makes a very good photograph.

Wow. Never will my mind be that - sequential. I can't even keep track of what day it is.

I do cling on to mechanical pencils and fountain pens - well, I had to give up on using the fountain pens because I couldn't get bottles of ink in the U.S. But I still have the pens, years and years later. It's a very sad thing when a pen or pencil strays out of my life.

Even though by now I almost always write on the computer.

I see you feel connected to your writing devices too, heh..

I see the vision of you writing with a fountain pen, haha. It sounds so fit.

Personally I'm too lazy to constantly take care of them properly, and I don't feel entitled to use fancy pens or pens that have old charm. lol. Too good for my craptastic handwriting.

Nah, I've moved on to anti-ecologic disposable gelpens by now.

This society almost forces you to be wasteful... but they are nice pens.

Oh, and I can hardly even read my own handwriting anymore. Out of practice or something.
