(Installation)

Dimensions: 13560 x 9960


Materials: wood, hangers, paint, rope


Exhibited: Kamppi Trade Center, Helsinki, 2017


Created for the ‘Media Intervention in the City’ course at Aalto University, this installation addresses consumerism and its pervasive influence. The structure, reminiscent of a spider, draws visitors upward in a commercial space, ultimately consuming their attention and energy, analogous to the extraction of vitality. The segmented ‘legs’ of the spider are constructed from clothes hangers, while a web of white rope unites the structure. The piece critiques contemporary urban consumption, highlighting the imbalance between desire and satisfaction in everyday life.
