Elephant-burger is an art object in which a person is an integral part as he or she is inlaid in the sculpture. The spectator serves as stuffing in the burger and is offered the feeling of being trapped in the dominant values of the consumer society. Burger is probably the most popular dish in the world, the perfect outcome of a mass production system. The elephant is a reflection of its powerful and calm nature. The sculpture is an allegorical expression of our consumer attitude toward the surrounding world. She suggests “predator” and “victim” swapping places, thus giving the opportunity to enhance our environmental consciousness and responsibility for our deeds.
