HEDGE (Verenigde Staten, 2010 / 2013)

Complex trading, based on proprietary knowledge and communicated through a privileged visual language, underpins all aspects of our global economy informing decision making and influencing the most basic human needs: food, shelter, energy, water. This language of money, while hypnotic in its abstraction, color and form, remains indecipherable to the average person who is nevertheless affected by its daily practice. Only a fluent few, the subjects of Hedge and the vast financial systems they represent, lay claim to its power and meaning.
