Andrea Zittel is an American installation artist who began making fuctional pieces of art in the early 1990's. Her main focus is on creating compact "living units" that provide all of a person's needs (food/water, clothing, shelter) in one, small area. Most of her works are artsy and appealing to the eye in addition to being functional for living in. In fact, as part of her exibitions, Zittel will often live in her creations for upwards of months at a time. She states that her goal is to show that perfection is not something that we actually want; instead we wish to have continuous improvement and progress in our lives.
