10 Attempts to Find the Snark #2, 2007 - 2008

This project uses lost black umbrellas, which were collected from London's transportation system (TfL). In each one of the 10 lost umbrellas several holes are perforated according to the night sky constellations as seen on the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Each umbrella, whose function has been destroyed, invites the spectator to a singular experience somewhere between Mary Poppins and visiting the nearest planetarium.
