This work explores how value can emerge from what is normally overlooked. The bread clip, a mass-produced and classless object handled by everyone, is used and discarded without reflection.
By placing hundreds of clips next to each other, the individual object loses importance and becomes part of an accumulation. What is insignificant on its own gains rhythm, pattern, mass, and weight through repetition, creating tension between the individual and the collective. The work reflects labor, consumption, daily rituals, and the systemic invisibility embedded in everyday life.
