Shell-phones

Shell-phones

Shell-phones are earbuds created by the Russian artist Katerina Shukshina. With no formal art training, she turns whatever grows near her in the countryside into beautiful objects. A zucchini in her hands becomes Chanel ballet flats. A jacket made of cabbage leaves gets assembled, photographed, and then fed to her chickens. The organic materials usually mean that nothing she makes lasts more than a day.

The seashells won’t rot the way her cabbages do, but wired headphones have their own tidal pull. One season they’re out of style; the next they’re the most tasteful thing you can own. Last week, Hailey Bieber previewed a new pair from her hubby’s brand SKYLRK. Whether they’re actually on trend doesn’t matter. What we really want to know is: if you put them on, will you hear the sounds of the ocean?
