Organ Donor. Wood. 2011 – wooden sculptures illustrate the privatisation of human life
With the Transplantation Act, the state passes on its monopoly on the use of force in parts to third parties.
“Organ Donor. Wood. 2011” depicts people who are stereotypically eviscerated wooden figures trimmed into commodities.
The work consists of 106 signed sculptures made of grown wood, glazed either light blue or white. They are stored in a food container in blue plastic, padded with newspaper.
The set is currently exposed at ArtDock in Zurich, but still available for illustrations and on loan.
However, it can be purchased.
