Luke Salisbury - Pedestal of Rejection

This pedestal was built to reject. 
Most pedestals are constructed to play second fiddle to the works mounted on them, while this piece is made to stand alone. It is, in fact, designed to dominate anything that would dare to place itself on top of it. 
The user of the pedestal is asked to bring a sacrificial object of a fragile nature unto the Pedestal of Rejection. The object is then placed upon the flat surface for a brief moment of false glory before it is then flung onto the cold, unforgiving floor. This pedestal is a useful tool for releasing pent-up aggression one might have towards a particular knick-knack or art object in a safe and controlled way before the feelings are released in an unwanted irrational lashing out.
