Destination unknown.
This art object represents: Birth (white thread below painting), Life (painting), Death (upper white thread) and The World itself (frame) and is meant to hang freely to emphasize fragile life and all its contradictions. Further details are the loose white threads on the frame itself, all representing the most important social factors in our life (see below). Another detail which is easy to spot, is the state of the painting itself which stands for all the ups and downs in our lives.
Details:
The lower threads representing our ‘past lives’. Thinking of genetics, nature and nurture which was already there before your where born.
The white threads on the sides represent the people you meet along the way.
The loose upper threads stands for everyone you will leave behind when your time has come.
