ARCH286690
Description:
This item contains harmful materials including violent imagery. The drawing illustrates the discrete elements of an exhibition involving several large-scale installations. One of these installations shows a crane on which a net filled with mannequins is suspended; the mannequins are soaked in oil, in the words of the designers, to represent the impacts of oil spills on the global population.
