The work Take a Berak deals with the matrix of routine everyday life and its simplest hack/crack - sexual pleasure. Usual everyday life is represented by an office chair. But the apparently simple chair can easily be transformed into a device to elicit sexual excitment. Take a break deals with sexual pleasure and enhanced rapture as the primary system for logging off from regular reality.
The chair is fitted with hidden aids for heightening sexual experience, from standard vibrators and SM gear to audio-visual brain stimulations.
