Jacob

Egeberg

Jacob Egeberg is a Danish artist based in Copenhagen. For the exhibition, he created a chandelier and a plinth, inspired by toxic masculinity, stereotypical traits and social anxiety. The chandelier can be an elegant and appealing object of desire, a measure of success, or simply another car crush. The pieces represent an opportunity for a backseat confession or simply the perfect symbol of a mid-life crisis.

A heavy mass hanging from your ceiling, a beating engine suffocated possibly by toxic masculinity, stereotypical traits and social anxiety. On an endless journey of false self-confidence, betting our identity on car culture, this peace represents an opportunity for a backseat confession or simply the perfect symbol and purchase for a mid-life crisis.
