Edición de la obra Heidi Voet

Heidi Voet's multi-disciplinary artistic practice is characterized by her playful and transformative use of objects to make critical social commentaries about everyday life. She transforms the banal into something wondrous, and in the process unearths concerns, connections and consequences that underlie the moment. Heidi Voet frequently deploys popular images or objects found in contemporary Chinese culture as central subjects in her works since her move to China in 2006. For one of her best-known series, Voet created elaborately patterned rugs by weaving thousands of colorful digital watches. The watches all have synchronized alarms, but inevitably malfunction and chime off beat over time creating an impromptu electronic sound installation.
