red cotton pants on zinc tube on MDF base
1993
A pair of red cotton pants appears to drape and conform around a zinc tube mounted on an MDF base, blurring the boundary between clothing and sculpture. Wurm transforms an everyday domestic garment into an absurdist object, imbuing the inanimate with a strangely human presence. The work reflects the artist's ongoing investigation into the relationship between the body, objects, and identity.
