Ed. of 7
Commissioned by Looiersgracht 60, a prominent design gallery in Amsterdam for a show titled "Containing Content" in 2015 where Bakker presented an exhibition of five jugs: Pivot, Pipe, Soy Pourer, Pot, and Square Pourer.
Dutch writer, Hans den Hartog Jager wrote the following in the artist's biography for the show, "Bakker rarely starts a design from the desire to solve a practical problem. In fact, though Baker may unmistakably be a designer, his interest in functionality only comes in at the latest stage."
The five jugs presented in the 2015 exhibition epitomize Bakker's inclinations of function following form.
