Endless consumption II

Nineteen black-white rectangular tubes are hung from a strong thin thread, in an elaborate way that offers several degrees of freedom. The tubes can move and rotate with the slightest air currents, making the artwork responsive to movement in space. Thus, the work ‘socializes’ with the presence of people in the room, while it can stay still when no life exists around.
The result is a continuously-changing pattern that alludes to infinite combinations of bar codes, like those used in mass-produced products. The best location seems to be close to a window or anywhere there is some traffic by people and smooth air currents are present (indoors of course!).

The colorful tubes are ‘framed’ in an elegant wooden case that adds extra protection.

Materials:
High-quality, acid-free colored cardstock, reinforced with an extra layer inside. Plywood case, painted with non-fading polyurethane paint, resistant to scratches. Extra strong polyester thread.
The work has a very long life, provided that is placed inside a room with low humidity and no extreme temperature differences (like any other artwork).
