"Ligudik", "Valuemeter" and "Artwork Consisting Only Of Its Value"
Installation, 2013
The three independent pieces "Ligudik", "Valuemeter" and "Artwork Consisting Only of its Value" are presented as parts of a larger installation. One important theme for us while creating this artwork was the transformation of the notion of value from a very physical form into an abstraction that does not have to follow the rules of the physical reality and the connections within such a system. Ligudik and Valuemeter are elements created specially as if to make the pure idea of an Artwork consisting only of it’s value more credible. Also there is of course a hint of mockery towards the current economic system which in our opinion already contains quite a few of the same type of objects, agreements and ideas we are creating.
