"The Poetry of the Everyday - Shopping Bags" In our society today, shaped by consumption, shopping bags hold symbols reflecting our identity as consumers. Often relegated to a secondary role, these simple yet essential kraft paper bags become canvases for reflecting on our consumption habits and societal events in art. As an artist, I strive to transform the mundane into unique expressions. I arrange the kraft paper bags into blocks upon which I paint motifs. My color palette is intentionally limited, contrasting with the diversity of products these bags once held—essential goods, everyday items, useful and dispensable things. The focus lies on the contents of the bags and the stories of their products. My art invites the viewer to discover the poetry behind these simple shopping bags. The paper bags are numbered on the back, dated 2024, and stamped with the name "Borai." The first paper bag of each block is hand-signed on the back. Technique: Kraft paper shopping bag, acrylic paint, thin acrylic varnish Presentation: The individual paper bags are numbered on the back and arranged tightly in a block from left to right. The presentation of the paper bag block on a mat inside a frame with glass/plexiglass or the free hanging of the block on the wall using acid-free adhesive pads is possible. Transport: The individual paper bags are stacked, and the bundle is shipped in a cardboard box.
