Voyager – studio Antimundo

Shirt found in a rainforest, and meteorite buttons.

An abandoned shirt, which is missing its buttons, is found by the artist during a walk in a forest. In order to repair it, new buttons are made by melting meteorites and casting them into button shapes. Consequently, they are sewn onto the shirt.

This action unites two wandering entities that were not otherwise intended to meet: a shirt on planet Earth, and meteorites from outer space, which now belong together.

Detail: The meteorite buttons sewn onto the found shirt.
