MESSENGERS


Items of household machinery (faucets, fragments of a sewing machine and a toy car) are assembled in the archaic form of messenger horses: each has a department for messages, which can be sent by the public to the future. The artist plays on the techniques of sewing and birch bark wickerwork working with metal, which is never used with these technologies.
