Widewalls | Recycle Group
Artist duo Recycle Group sat down with Widewalls to discuss modern-day society morale and their involvement in the group exhibition Inspiration – Iconic Works at Nationalmuseum in Stockholm.
"Recycle Group’s art spans a variety of media and topics dealing with contemporary issues and behaviors. Perhaps the best example is their participation in the collateral program of the 2015 Venice Biennale; their Conversion installation took place inside a church, referring to "the life of a modern man as it is in the age of the world web and new gadgets."
Technology becomes mankind’s newest religion, in which plastic-mesh “Neo-Apostles” bring a new kind of knowledge, while we can kneel before a cross that is actually Facebook’s “f” logo. We can also admire a detail from Noah’s Ark and recognize the very familiar icons belonging to Instagram or Apple’s App Store."
