The Suicidal Box
This box is mounted on a bridge (the bridges in México and some parts of Latin America for some reason are caged most of the times) with the questioning of: why caging a bridge.
The suicidal box is a set of two boxes; the first one gives information to the user of that place and makes a metaphor to the condition of the canary.
This is placed as the idea of being sensible to the environment. As it is with the miners deep down the earth: once the canary dies, you are practically screwed.
The other box is set as an emergency box with tools that can be used by the people passing by; and instructions of how they can cut the wire.
In a way this tools and instructions are so specific and methodical that are unusable. When you are ready to go for it, you don’t really think about it.
