The Object Lesson

They say every object tells a story, and in the case of our personal possessions, it’s often a biographical one. That point is driven home in Geoff Sobelle’s brilliant and utterly unique one-man show The Object Lesson. Amidst a set cluttered with cardboard boxes overflowing with objects, Sobelle grabs various items that provide a direct line to the past. By turns wistful, hilarious and heartbreaking, The Object Lesson reminds us that the things that surrounds us are markers of both time and memory.
