The 'Celebrity - The One & The Many' exhibition features two huge installations custom-built to fit into the museum's space. This four-storey-high concrete slab is meant to represent a modest dwelling. Photography: ONUK
The building cannot be entered, but viewing panels give glimpses of the played-out scenarios inside. Photography: ONUK
The installation aims to touch on the recent phenomena of fame-hungry youths willing to gain media coverage through any means possible, be it television, the internet, or blogs. Photography: ONUK
Each scenario within the block is different, but all have some kind of reference to fame.

The second installation shows an empty ballroom bordering onto another room, where a VIP party is taking place behind closed doors. Encased completely by frosted-glass door panes, the VIPs and their party are kept away from exhibition visitors, who only hear gossip and noise from the party inside. Photography: ONUK
