Brewed Identity

In ‘Brewed Identity’ by Sergio Aleman, the spout of the orange ceramic tea kettle serves as a transformative channel, where domestic ritual meets self-expression.‍As the hair pours out of the spout, the viewer is invited to consider how identity is crafted, steeped in private moments, and carefully measured before it is released to the world.‍The spout as fastener reminds us that our outward personas are shaped by the environments we inhabit and the forces that govern what we choose to reveal.
