DTWYCA Egoism 2019
Installation by Friso Witteveen, 2019, Amsterdam
50 x 25 x 60 cm., anodized aluminum, acrylic,
perfume bottles and box & Eau de Toilette (EdT)
DTWYCA Egoism Another visually compelling work in the Don’t Touch… series.
The installation’s appeal stems partly from its familiarity, whether it is the casing of
the famous computer, the use of matte aluminum or the perfume’s striking packaging.
Or is it the brand and it’s design that do the trick, directly referencing one of the
world’s most famous perfumes?
DTWYCA Egoism actively encourages us to reflect on our individual surrender to
temptations. It challenges our consumer behavior, symbolically expressed through
attractive design and materials. Beauty as a good or bad scent, presented as an
attractive and sensational stimulus. Harmoniously presented in a delightful bottle
and a beautiful box, as the personification of beauty, joy, and happiness.
Let yourself be seduced…
