This piece is a visualization of human blinkers. Using the metaphor of the horse blinkers it depicts the condition were human beings become fanatic, narrow-minded, inflexible and isolated and they do not accept any kind of diversity. By wearing blinkers they look distant and frightening.

The piece restricts the senses of the wearer. No eye contact. No human contact. No communication. Unable to hear any other voice. The need of domination leads them to talk very loud. The voice though comes out as a humming, a disturbing noise. The vision is blurred and every stimulus around is preserved as thread. Of course the only available perpective is the narrow slice right in front of them. The sharp bolts come at the stage where individuals with blinkers inevitably become dangerous.
