<p>The social shelf project by Gersande Schellinx inquires how shifted perspectives in relation to materiality can produce alternative relationship between users/makers and small objects. In the context of social design, reciprocity between human and non-human actors is key. This bubble action uses the mundane space of a shelf as a material and conceptual constraint (or as a trope for social structures) to initiate conversations with people and their direct surroundings, engaging them in new material processes.
