opulent



Love the collaborative work of team Ghost of a Dream made up of Lauren Was and Adam Eckstrom.


Their creations of spaces, textiles, and environments out of found detritus or discard comment on the opulence and desire in out culture.



They say this about their work:

Our sculpture and installations embody the essence of opulence while being constructed of materials that typically end up in the trash. We mine popular culture searching for discarded materials that people use trying to reach their goals. Whether it is a romance novel that someone reads to enter into a dream reality; a religious track promising the glory of eternal life; or a lottery ticket that gives the possibility of a future full of rich decadence; we use these remnants to re-create people’s dreams.
