Description

The video installation 353 guides viewers through a visual documentation of personal objects to raise awareness and encourage reflection on individual consumer behaviour. The stagings, derived from the everyday use of these objects, reveal the bizarre and excessive consumption that often goes unnoticed in daily life. Handling the objects in their entirety allows for a humorous yet serious portrayal of this consumer behaviour and serves as a visual count. The stagings are unexpected and non-lecturing, making engagement with the topic as accessible as possible. The critique of our consumption is intended to become clear through the display and mass staging of these objects, leading viewers to independent reflection. The selection of objects is made with the intention that everyone can identify with them, feel addressed, draw direct comparisons, and form their own opinions.
