Asylum

More Information

Here the box appears like a terrarium for two captured, winged creatures—toy airplanes with enough liveliness to smash some cracks into the mirrored side of their container (when receiving this gift, we made quite sure to check that the cracks were original and intentional). Even with only a partial wall on the front, the work appears to be their little asylum, made into a more convincing environment by a carpet of tacks, buttons, and other metal fittings.
