Helen Gallagher "BlogCritics", October 14, 2009
"Can you create the Statue of Liberty out of a burger and fries? Do you have the imagination to stage a boxing match between two bananas? There is a seriously talented mind at work in "Bent Objects: The Secret Life of Everyday Things". This art book / gift book / humor-photo collection will inspire and amuse the reader. But chances are the author's alma mater will not be amused, since this project is the result of a costly degree in Fine Arts Photography. But fine, fun art it is..."

Product Description
Everyday objects such as paper clips and Cheez-Doodles are twisted into hilarious recreations of our everyday lives. Eggs, paper clips, popcorn, a bottle of white out, cheese doodles, and a thousand miniature accessories from doll houses combine into wacky and hysterical bad puns, play on words, and downright observational humor from the offbeat mind of Terry Border. Wire-based animation and the hilarious secret life of common household items create small scenes that will be enjoyed by both young and old.

I was already familiar with the blog, but this is a fantastic book to have to hand for idle moments. This is what coffee-table books should be about - something offbeat, wickedly twisted without being offensive, and absolutely hilarious! It also goes quite nicely with Cake Wrecks - which is a bit more hit-and-miss, but has the same laugh-out-loud quality to some of its features.

I've been following Terry's blog for a few years, so have seen many of these images before, but there were some nice surprises in here even for me. Bought it as a christmas present, for someone who has never heard of bent objects. I makes a fab coffee table or toilet book for visitors to flick through. Also it has a few pages at the back that show you how to make your own bent objects if you're inspired.

A very unusual and funny book. You will never have seen anything quite like these pictures of everyday items and objects behaving in very human ways. It's the kind of offbeat, entertaining book you can keep dipping into many times. Terry Border also has a blog with the same name that is well worth a visit: recent gems include the can of sweetcorn throwing up its contents. The photos are highly original and strangely poignant. Why hasn't someone made a TV series out of it?
