The SIM Project

Boons, Sofie; Menger, Frank; Hingley, Liz

Abstract

The installation features SIM artworks created with over 100 participants from countries including Afghanistan, Syria, Turkey, Venezuela, Hong Kong, Senegal and Libya at workshops held in the UK, Greece, Finland and Cyprus.

The SIM artworks are displayed in their physical form as hanging pieces of jewellery as well as in the carousel of a revolving projector, which enlarges the details of each onto the gallery wall. The surrounding light boxes illuminate stamped personal numbers on the backplates of the artworks held in the hands that made them.
