Soap glides, slips out of your hands, leaves behind a fragrant and iridescent foam, being washed off by a stream of water and disappearing without a trace – like nothing else, it becomes not only a metaphor, but also a criticism of all aspects of life.

 

The exercise invented by Motolants also resembles a cycle of “instant sculptures” Erwin Wurm, with their distinct anti-capitalist pathos, and Zhang Huang's worldly performance “Add One Meter to an Unnamed Mountain.”

 

To build a vertical line from various pieces of soap and finely matched soaps, choosing a fulcrum on the forehead, requires a person to have a sense of balance.
