In the material world we live in today, we have an increasingly definite idea about ​​the function of the objects we use every day. We associate a particular shape with a function and we expect the object to perform the task for which it was designed. However, there are situations in which an object is subjected, temporarily or permanently, to a change in function by its user. One may take a cushion to kill a mosquito, a polystyrene box to make a flowerpot, a key to remove the wax from an ear. Examples can be predictable or totally unexpected. Therefore, this section seeks to collect, categorise and analyse these changes of function to better understand them. This theme has been my great passion for years, and through this work, I aim to attain a level of theorisation that would, in my opinion, allow a better understanding, rather creative, of the material world.
