The Last Hour of Cabinet I, 2018
Manipulated Ikea Detolf cabinet vitrines

A family of 11 Ikea vitrines gather around in mourning. Based on 15th century frescos’ compositions, The Last Hour of Cabinet I puts forward questions regarding the limitation of empathy and actual consequences caused by fictional events.
Related closely with the Detolf product which is featured in the video A Problem as the ground from which the protagonists operate, The Last Hour of Cabinet I allows viewers to literally experience the world through the work and its life size transparent objects.
