The concept is a leash/ harness that is combined together for pet and child. This makes the viewer more or less uncomfortable thereby raising questions about our morality and values at the same time pointing finger towards the possible future of idiosyncratic products.

The Leash

Control and protection

There is a clear difference between
The notion of control and Protection.
I attempt to re imagine the
levels of protection we offer or control we practice on our dependents.
This design takes issue with the
Parental control via child harnesses and the whole notion of child safety.
In cultural context.

The discomfort both physical and psychological raises questions about the current state of parent child relationships.
