IKEA hackers
Swaaniiel versus IKEA series on paper, Newburgh, NY, 2023
I discovered the IKEA hackers online community recently.
Individuals repurpose, customize IKEA products and share their ideas, tutorials, and projects online.
The term "hacking" in this context refers to creative and resourceful alterations to the original designs, rather than malicious computer hacking.
I apply this process to customize IKEA packaging in art: I kept all the frames RIBBA packaging paper and created this new series.
