Polyurethane rubber, magnetic surfaces; 40 x 55 x 55 cm (15 3/4 x 21 5/8 x 21 5/8)
A subtle mysticism runs through All-seeing Eye (2016), a small stone pyramid whose levitating top—held aloft by magnets—suggests an invisible force at work. Recycle Group replaces the glowing eye of the dollar bill’s pyramid with a blank search bar, drawing a wry yet unsettling parallel between ancient symbols of power and the modern surveillance of our digital queries.
