About the work

Jakub Janovský for 100 pcs

"The first in the series of houses of cards is something between a still life and anti-utopian architecture. Created by a human hand, yet man is absent here. It essentially points to the fragility and instability of our system, where a single small movement is enough for everything to collapse."
