Our exhibition is a three person perspective on products. In the end it is just a tip of an iceberg of the thoughts that the subject has awoken in
us. The points for the discussion have been the individual relationship to the products themselves and the questions of ownership, manufacture, transportation and materialism.

The manufacture of products is a chain between people and products in that chain are plastic pearls that slide off our hands. The desire to own and not to own compete at the same time. In addition to the concrete, the abstract and immaterial can be owned, collected and preserved.

On a larger scale, the logistics, transition and conservation of products can be seen as visual elements in our environment, but at the same time we are sorting, storing and organizing them also on a personal level. We acquire and collect products around us as personal denominators of ourselves. Among other things we simply need products to keep on proceeding on our lives.

The Finnish Cultural Foundation has supported our exhibition.
