Functional Art
When creating a functional piece of art, the artist's intent is to bring works of creativity and beauty into everyday lives. Whether it's a curvy chair made of porcelain clay or a coat rack made of car parts, functional art is designed to make us rethink the way we look at ordinary things, sometimes by using unusual materials in their construction.
Functional art is generally applied art, created for use and designed to serve a purpose with an aesthetic in mind.
