Objects get there meaning mainly from an origin and a purpose. The origin of an object is important because the location can vary the style and the intention of the object. The purpose of the object is also crucial because there is no such thing as an object that was created and/or produced for no reason. If an object is made, it can also be used to symbolize a potential deeper meaning. Some objects has deeper meanings than others, while some have more importance than others. An object has some level of convenience, no matter what and how it is used and/or created. It is not really who assigns value, but why it has value. Yes, the person who has created and/or produced the object has to have full credit and a certain level of importance, but it the object isn’t made to reflect the expression of the creator. The purpose of the object is to have convenience and meaning. In other words, it the creator and/or the person who assigns value is not the nucleus of the object. Just like the silverware on top of this paragraph, it is not a traditional museum of art, but the aesthetic value and the purpose of it gives it the least name of an object.
