Design Friday: Marcel Dzama Melting Snowman Canisters

2007_12_14-Canisters.jpgWhen Canadian artist Marcel Dzama moved from Winnipeg to New York he made a series of autobiographical sketches documenting his feelings about the relocation. Those sketches turned into these unusual kitchen canisters: Marcel Dzama Melting Snowman Canisters, $125 at Unica Home.

The tallest is 9", and they all have sealed lids, so they're the perfect little set for coffee, sugar, and tea or whatever condiments you keep on your counter. Perfect, that is, if you're a Northerner transplanted south; would have been a great conversation piece, during all those years in Florida...
