NUCLEAR MAN, 2012

NUCLEAR MAN is a project created for ABSOLUT BLANK Bulgaria. Several Bulgarian artists from different fields of art were invited to work inspired by the two-dimensional outline of the bottle. The task was to work only inside the contour of the bottle.

The challenge in NUCLEAR MAN was to build a multi-dimensional space with complex geometry, which would oppose the flat image of the bottle. A figure consisting of thousands of elements is placed inside an interior with reflecting surface.

NUCLEAR MAN depicts a human body within a measurement chamber in a state of teleportation.

Installation; 10 000 golden coctail straws, transparent silicon, wood, paint, mirror foil, fibran, lights; 375 x 130 cm.
