Installation

"In a small space of 6m by 5m hung 37 plexi-works by big steel nails; ceiling and walls, thus forming a figured out chaos. The works all had different shapes, they didn’t hung parallel to the wall, and not on a comfortable height to look at. It was almost impossible to look at the works without injuring oneself.

The exposition was a conclusion made by me after reading 2 year-volumes of ‘New Scientist’, older scientific sources, and Wittgenstein."
