By using widespread symbols of fight and advocating for the art scene
this work is inspired by a word game with the syntagm donation box
Donation as symbol of financial support, and boxing as symbol of readiness to jump into a fight are merged into automaton that is realized as funfair machine, a punching arcade.
This device, aesthetically camouflaged and fine tuned for the gallery environment,
suptly introduces elements of amusement park into a gallery space
questioning borders between art and amusement, which is one of the frequent motifs in Karkatag's work
