Ideas to drink, 2010 Installation


If there is an international with done, this is the international consumption. In an age of unbridled globalization, Americanization of the world, the market is the place where all people, as consumers, we are "equal", we all speak the same language.
From this modello di democratizzazione illusoria, da questa omogeneizzazione delle differenze nel segno del commercio, in virtù dei quali tutto si può comprare, la Zuniga gioca con i simboli del consumo mettendo in vendita, attraverso un distributore automatico, anche le idee. Per pochi centesimi è possibile acquistare qualsiasi prodotto e “dare da bere” qualsiasi cosa.

Home is where you make it, 2008 , Legno e pvc

What defines our identity? The place where we come from or what we feel most at home? This is the question that arises Home is Where You Make It , a model built on a common household carpet, an object that normally identifies the threshold that separates inside from outside, the gap between the ' unknown and knowledge, between the undifferentiated and what is ours, the public and private sectors. On the doorstep is highlighted the problem of living. Paradoxically, this threshold becomes Zuniga for the support of a vision of eradication: a portrait of suburban dystopia par excellence, the American. A any district, completely anonymous, with fields and houses, where you end up building an identity-territorial, unmoored from any possible genius loci.
