Work

A good example of their work is the sculpture hot spot, an oversized electrified globe made of wire mesh, the red lights at various points. This takes not only references to global warming, but is impressively the global spread of war and terror of conflict in the views.

About the installation with 145 hairballs, when they six years together rolled her brushed- curls and collected in a shoebox, says Ingvild Goetz: " I ​​see it as a religious punishment of the woman, a farewell from the woman -is- Can ". .
