Arabo Sargsyan's Fur Bag raises uncompromising questions: what corpses are hidden in this fur bag? Or: how many animal lives do you sacrifice for luxury items? Created as part of a campaign by the Anti-Fur Coalition, this work uses X-rays as an artistic medium to reveal the invisible victims of the fashion industry. It unflinchingly exposes a cruel reality that we often prefer to ignore in our daily lives and confronts us with the true price of fur: the suffering and death of animals.
