The things we own are perceived to guarantee success, happiness <strong>and</strong> confidence in ourselves. Today’s media <strong>and</strong> advertisement heavily reinforce limitless consumption <strong>and</strong> continuous replacement of goods, making this phenomenon a staple of contemporary society. The art project “Sheep droppings of wool” is an installation of felt objects, accompanied by a video act filmed in the marketplace. During this act, sheep droppings of wool, packed by professional artists according to food administration labeling requirements, are presented together with food items <strong>and</strong> frequently purchased consumer goods. In view of massive <strong>and</strong> compulsive propensity to consume, consume, <strong>and</strong> consume, the art object is transferred into unusual space of traditional shopping. The video records shoppers’ reactions <strong>and</strong> their interest in “unexpected” art product as manifestation of consumption habits of today’s society.
