 "Mesmerized by artificial images..." - Your construction of personal reality is influenced by well designed images prepared to convince you to behave as a good consumer. Lang, the provocative artist produces collages using the motives of consumption and megacities to reflect on the society influenced by media and mass culture. He recycles and reinterprets diverse photos and prints to emphasise the responsibility of the visual environment.

- Believe me everything - says the liar.
- Don't believe anything. - says the truthful.
