Cute babe fell of the scooter and broke their Gucci glasses. Uff. Ju Aichinger, stoneware and wig, 2021

The picture shows a concreted sidewalk on which something happened. In the middle of the floor are fragments that tell a story. There is a wig with long glossy hair, on top of that a cap that reminds one of the the car-brand Subaru, the label of the brand is on it, decorated with tribal-style-flames. Underneath the cap and in the nest, that the hair has built on the street, are pieces of broken sunglasses. They have a neon color and one of the shards reveals the Gucci logo on them. Next to the human traces, are parts of a scooter. A handlebar from which one side has broken off, one other pole with a holder to regulate the size of the scooter and a reflecting metal wheel.The title of the artwork is: “Cute babe fell off the scooter and broke their Gucci glasses. Uff.“ All the pieces, accept for the wig, are made out of ceramics and have the same glossy, smooth surface the glaze creates.
