Biscuit Alley
This installation invites the audience to directly explore the material fragility of an apparently mundane object — the biscuit. The pathway made of oversized biscuits becomes a space for sensory experimentation, where the viewer’s steps can crack, crush, or destabilize the unstable structure of the paving. The work references the unpredictable and unstable nature of art, of artists, and of materiality itself, highlighting the tension between what appears solid yet may give way at the slightest touch.
