China creative agency SenseTeam presented at the exhibition Asia award 2011 a symbolic art project consisting of several huge portraits of people. These portraits from afar resembled patchwork, but upon closer inspection, they turned out to be … collages of money, of a wide variety of currencies. At the exhibition, they appeared under the name Big Business … Is it worth explaining for a long time why the authors chose such a name and just such a material for creativity? In modern society, money decides, and if not everything, then practically everything. People live to make money, and not vice versa - this is how people come out of money, big businessmen in big business.
Portraits created from many varieties of national currencies mean that money people live everywhere, they are in every country - they just look different. And multicurrency portraits are a collective image, an attempt to unite this huge crowd into one whole. Men and women, young people and mature people, and even children - they all know a lot about money, and want to have as much of this "sense" in their hands as possible.
