    Marcin Rusak’s perishable vases are organic composites made from waste flowers collected from florists, shellac, beeswax and resin. Marcin comments that: 'Decaying and ageing materials have an important place in my practice. I develop them from organic ingredients in order to create objects that have an element of life on their own. Perishable Vases are created as a paradox to examine the way in which we value things around us. We surround ourselves with objects of use, which become irrelevant to us at certain point, but we are stuck with their materiality. Creating something with an aesthetic and emotional value with the constant reality that it might not last forever creates an uncomfortable notion of wanting to preserve however we can. It creates a nonphysical relationship which lasts while we consciously maintain it. I believe it is the objects we value that will outgrow the everyday and become representatives of our times.'
