Nivea Diamond Gloss – 2021

The magic of this lampshade lies not only in its aesthetics, but also in its functionality. As the light shines through, the strands of hair are transformed into a fascinating interplay of shadows and brilliance, casting a magical glow over the surroundings.

Yet for all its beauty, there is a certain ambivalence to this work of art. The loose hair, blowing freely in the wind, may evoke disgust in some. But it’s this ambivalence that is the essence of art. It challenges the viewer to look beyond conventions and norms, and to discover beauty in the unexpected. The installation in public space aims to evoke sensuality, despite the potential disgust caused by the loose hair.
