Quik
Action, done in late 1981 and early 1982, is rooted in a political-conceptual
aesthetic. Boxes of Nestle Quik®
were bought and consumed. the empty containers were then covered with
similar labels including political propoganda and filled with brown
plastic dead-baby dolls. These altered boxes were then placed on supermarket
shelves where unsuspecting customers could find them. The aesthetic
interest lies not in the manufacture of the boxes or the documentation
presented here, but in the confrontation between the shoppers and the
altered object.
