Artwork, Artwork on the Wall #4

This series of works create an interactive experience in which the artist relinquishes control over the final composition of an artwork, placing this authority in the hands of the audience.

The works draws a parallel between this act and a common occurrence that the artist observes in the art industry, in which an artist’s control over his creation is diminished when (seemingly) invisible forces within the artistic trade assume power. These forces within the ecosystem actively manipulate the performance and success of artworks and artists – rendering the artist’s authority an illusion.

In this works, audience in exhibition room became subject, object, and center piece. Representing artworld that has significant value over an artwork. This statement become more relevant during previous pandemic situation, where physical exhibition is very rarely happened and we realize that at some degrees an artwork can’t really “work” without audience looking at it directly.
