Sucker is a fragmented figure. The parts that could be called something like leg, head, ear etc hang separately from nylon-threads attached to the roof. Together the parts give form to the body of the Sucker. Sucker reaches from the floor to the ceiling, it is balancing on one foot and it bends its leg. The arms are raised in a gesture of “strength”, as when someone wants to show that he/she is strong. The thumbs are long, and make the gesture “Thumbs Up”. The muscles, the ass, the toe, the thumbs are exaggerated. Sucker sucks its own toe.
The surface of Sucker is made of plastic and tape, what could be described as the inside of the body is covered with feathers. Inside the upper part of the body, there are two fans, which are blowing so the feathers and the body parts move.
