About
Sleeping Under a Carpet is an image macro series based on a piece of artwork by the artists known as Meatwreck. The image features a couple sleeping in an empty apartment under the carpet and is used to express living in poverty or feelings of love.
Origin
The image of the couple sleeping under a carpet was first presented at an exhibition in 2015. In the description, the gallery wrote, "meatwreck, #getaroom, 9800 opening night performance photo series on Instagram, 2015" (shown below).[1] The work is credited to Meatwreck, the art collective comprised of artists Derek Paul Boyle and Mitra Saboury.
