By ‘de-produces’ the produced, DRIFT tries to visualise how much of the matter whiten these objects are extracted from the earth. For these new artworks a Barbie, a Gameboy, a game and a bag of South-Korean Shin-Ramyun noodles were deconstructed.

In the exhibition there is also a series called Making of, which provides an in-depth survey of DRIFT’s practice through an archive presentation to embrace the artist’s effort by presenting the process of their engineering thinking that leads to nature.
