ABOUT THE WORK
IT takes the fashion industry’s “it-object” as its starting point — the kind of thing that suddenly appears everywhere, becomes a symbol of desirability, and just as quickly gives way to the next one.
The bag is held by the artist’s own hands, reflecting a personal fascination with fashion, status and the desire to possess the objects that seem to define a moment. Soap bubbles surround it like the fragile promise attached to that desire: beautiful, seductive and temporary.
But the work is not only about fashion. The same impulse extends to relationships, habits and entire ways of living — the tendency to want what we repeatedly see others wanting. Somewhere inside that endless imitation lies a very simple question: do I actually want this bag?
