Content Prompt #1

Objects Food Rooms

"Published in 1914, Tender Buttons by Gertrude Stein is simultaneously considered to be a masterpiece of verbal Cubism, a modernist triumph, a spectacular failure, a collection of confusing gibberish, and an intentional hoax.

Divided into three sections—"Objects," "Food," and "Rooms"—the book contains a series of descriptions that defy conventional syntax. In "Gertrude Stein, Her Escape from Protective Language William Gass notes that these are, respectively, "things external to us, which we perceive, manipulate, and confront," "things which nourish us," and "things which enclose us." src

Take 30-40 minutes to gather / create images with these ideas of 'objects,' 'food,' and/or 'rooms' in mind,.
