Steven Barrett:
I view life as one large collection that we acquire, and add to, over a period of time. There seems to me, to be an element of competition to have the latest gadgets, and sometimes the desire to have more than someone else. I have interpreted this concept, using 100 numbered stickers that come in packets of five, which can be collected, in much the same way as the stickers bought from newsagents. In ‘I Want It!’ each sticker depicts a material good or another aspect of life, such as a car, mobile phone, computer, career etc which we tend to desire or aspire to.
NB. Sticker albums are available but are only made to order.
