At first glance it looks like a one-room flat furnished with white furniture. There is a bed, a coat rack, a table with a chair, kitchen corner, mirror, kitchenware, bags, shelves, carpet, dishes, lamps and plants. The decoration of the room resembles that of a trade fair or a department store display. Yet a closer look at it reveals artworks placed within the installation.

Some of the works take the shape of recognizable everyday objects such as a bag made out of used teabags or a yucca plant made of disposable paper cups. Other works hide within the set: a landscape painting can be found inside a cupboard and a teabag inside a glass is replaced by a video.

Our one-room flat invites the audience to step in and explore its contents. There one can find a family photo album with no people in it, notice the illusionary works within the space or listen to a song depicting all the other works. A seemingly coherent entity turns into a spectrum of details.
