A transparent, white box hangs suspended under the ceiling. The box is sewn from white silk with a zipper on the front. The top of the box features pieces of elastic – one at each corner. Elastic is suspendeddiagonally across the exhibition room. The ends of the elastic have been gathered and attached to a plastic bag on the floor. The contents of the plastic bag are vacuum-packed. It contains 20 old, shrunken, freeze-dried apples.
AIR BOX presents the female body as a figure deconstructed and divided.
Anja Franke, 1994:
»Air Box is all about three parts: illusions of immaculate transmission,
femininity as an impact and the erotic phase.«
