Series “Bags”

Video installation
Video projector, video player, videotape, 39 paper bags, epoxy resin, acrylic paint

A text from the sixth book of "Metamorphoses" runs from the foreground to the background on a three-dimensional "screen" consisting of 39 shopping bags. The tale of the weaving contest between Pallas Athena and Arachne, in which the challenge of the gods ends in Arachne'´s transformation into a spider, refracts in the three-dimensional topography of the bags.
