"Burger" is deliberately placed in a neutral, almost "showcase" space, devoid of any objects which could tell about the occupations and habits of the inhabitant. The inhabitant’s identity has been erased. The emphasized inconsistency between the colours and the natural coloration of the products hints to the deceptiveness of the temptations of taste: saturated smells and taste create an association with the idea of the nutrition value of food that actually poisons us. The glossy surface of the chrome-plated "burger" resembles the greasy sheen of a cheese slice and a round bun stimulates the release of gastric juice. The warm color of stainless steel and the shine from polishing hints us to the idea of the production of household items, making you contemplate the analogy between a producing conveyor and the consumer society.

Type: MP4. Edition 1/1


Anton's work is notable for its extraordinary realism, as well as its recreation of famous fast food shapes. The author is a forger, and he is carrying on the legacy of the oldest school of industrial design. The artist is fascinated by the process through which modern consumer instincts operate. Anton presents his perspective of the conflicts between the many spheres of life in his series of works, which include the actual world and the emerging artificial virtual reality, as well as wild fauna and human civilisation. The brutality of the technology and the whimsical motive remind us of the Soviet colossal propaganda phenomenon which compiled both the inertness of the monumental sculpture and the dynamics of the printed slogans.
The artist is guided by the school‘s traditions. His art asserts the value of the aesthetics of the material. To comprehend the substance of his art creations, nothing more than the pleasure of our visual senses is necessary.
