Installation

Socks Snapper Anna Frants

In memoriam of pets…

We see a multitude of multicolored socks alternatively glowing in the dark.  Now one of them bursts into a bright light, now another, not having found a pair for itself… perhaps it is being chewed under the sofa…

Viewers are encouraged to bring photos of deceased pets for memorial wall.
