METAL CAGE BAG
This is the representation of a women’s handbag as a metal cage or a jail where we storage our inner being, our thoughts, our secrets, just like a modern treasure chest. Inspired in the sense of freedom and the ambition of it living in a world of prisons.
The classical shape of a bag remind us to the reality we live every day, becoming a symbol either for commercial and functional purposes or the lifestyle that everyone dreams about. The hardness of the materials used represent the oppression and restrictions we find in any aspect of our life. The different types of recycled metal wires give structure and roughness to this art piece, you can see how these feelings change when these wires start wrapping themselves like alive rococo scrolls softening our thoughts and making possible the impossible.
