Ivana Ivković
Ivana Ivković, Holy Office, 2009, clirit, LED lights, 200x20x15 cm
This installation made in the form of a commercial, conveys the painful truth but is also a pun that plays on the stereotypes from everyday life. The work is an ironical account of the fact that our offices are our new shrines, places where we spend most of our lives, spaces in which we fear, hope and pray.
