Life size print of toy car

 

The work deals with the exploration of children’s ambitions, the symbolism and meaning of particular childhood objects. Multiple magnification of a photographed motif identifies a toy with an object that it actually needs to simulate. A realistic and enlarged depiction of a toy, reduces the gap between the toy as a symbol and the desired object / car.
