Arturs Bērziņš

Untitled (trousers)

Installation, 2015


Exhibited work is a wearable piece of clothing, made of cotton. One side of it is made in Pakistan. The other side is made in my studio. Both of the sides are new. They are not worn before. There are different values of residual, prices and attitudes merged together in the good.
