‘The Microwave’ is part of the illustrative object series about how human are domesticated by technology. It depicts the uncanny dining experience we encounter in our everyday life by subverting the space of a dining room and the microwave interior. Ironically I placed a nice wooden dining table with a fine dinner for two, served with wine, into a microwave oven. This subversion leads to question the viewers, what can you get from a microwave oven? What have we been given up in order to adequate the instant technology culture? ‘The Microwave’ is made by paper cardboard, handcrafted without using any machines, the medium itself is disconnected from technology.
