Sving is a swing that spins around its own axis 45 times per minute. As a ready-made object taken out of the context of everyday life, the swing directly references the leisure industry. The absurdity and ambiguity of the object questions our understanding of the functionality of objects and the position of the work of art in relation to the public.
