• Drop Dead, 2015 by Ikoy Ricio


  • The work scrutinizes the subject of life itself and asks: "What if death is the doorway to winning?" Merging his fascination with diseases with his childhood love for games, Ricio produces a board game wherein he collects illnesses and pushes us to achieve a win by dying. He upturns the negative stigma of death into a positive perspective. The work was included in the MCAD's exhibition The Vexed Contemporary, which ran from August to November 2015.
