En Bloc (Wall)

I came across these carrier bags by chance while I was shopping. Only after I had been out with one of them all afternoon and put it on the table in the evening, I noticed its wonderful proportions, very high, relatively narrow and completely blank. I then got the address of the manufacturer and ordered a few. My first thought was also the most absurd one: just nail them to the wall at a right angle. Carrier bags as an addition on the gallery wall - in the appearance of a block - become a wall object with graphic rhythm of the surface and a surprising movement of paper sounds inside.
The sounds move through the body in all directions. A different texture behind the pattern of the surface.
