ShopAround Apartment Works is a scaled - down version of the artist’s original ShopAround series. The twenty pieces came to life due to the continued need to create after a temporary move from a large studio to a 3-foot by 3-foot patio closet.

“I have always loved to create large works for their sheer impact, and it took some adjusting to work on a smaller scale,” states Hinger. “This was a very satisifying and more accessible series than I anticipated at the advent of it’s creation.

Like the original series, these unique works resonate to the spend- and discard-syndrome firmly established in our genetic code, and speak to a generation captivated with consumerism. At any size , the sculptures sarcastically scream for your undivided attention and invite you to contemplate our role in our hype-driven, mass consumption of products.
