Zipper Zone (Master of Your Domain)

2009 - Zippers, photographs, 2 walls

‘Zipper Zone’ is an interactive artwork made out of zippers. The audience that enters the space can decide which part of the work to open and which part to close. Behind the zippers there are many things to discover: human beings and photographs.

This Ziipper Zone is a reflection of urban life, which is overloaded with images, messages from mass media and advertisements. We are “the master of our own domain” in the sense that we are forced to decide which information we want to take and which to exclude. We have to give our attention to so many things, yet at the same time we have to skip, select and delete in order to survive, to stay sane. ‘Zipper Zone (Master of Your Domain)’ is a parody of Facebook, where you can find nonsense and surprises.
