This work s done
in collaboration with my mother, Makdeonka Andonova, also an artist. It is a
complex spatial installation which consists of series of photos presenting my
mother and me using the products my mother bought through TV shopping channel,
like the special medical pillow, ionic toothbrush (birthday present for me),
some "useful" kitchen tools etc.; texts – comments on the utility of the
products; video infomercials and objects – some of the products in question.
It offers a personal, anecdotal view on the new processes of consumerism of
our “transitional” society, above all on the “direct marketing”, and it tries
to make (not very serious) analysis of the new consumer psychology, where the
act of shopping becomes almost a religious act and the branded products,
objects of adoration.
