Wooden ballot box, plastic balls, tape, packing material
A found wooden ballot box containing ballot balls and allowing for a simple voting (yes/no) was packed, labelled with artworks’ packing material and shipped to Turkey to then be stopped at the customs and intercepted. In all recent Turkish elections there has been the shadow of electoral fraud. The work is presented packed, therefore making it impossibile to cast one’s vote.
