Medal of Honour by Alexander Friedrich

Piece

Alexander Friedrich. Piece: Medal of Honour, 2010. Jacket, thread. 80 x 60 x 3 cm. You never know the background of a medal. Most of the medals are awards with a high value of recognition. Whether proud or ashamed, only the owner knows the story behind it. The outside shape and the meaning make it more anonymous.
. The „Medal of Honour“ stands for the individual and personal meaning of a medal regarding to the wearer. The white and empty medal, which is coming from the inside, let the viewer think about it. The positive shape, which is cut out of the jacket and the occuring negative shape represent and reflect the two sides of a medal.
