Overview

"I want to perform in the space, and exhibit two bathtubs: it is necessary to divide this performance over two days, to perform during the first and to exhibit on the second. That is because the cement of a bathtub has to dry. It is important to complete the performance in the space with many spectators."

Cement and plaster fill the volume of two bathtubs. The artist covers the floor with sand. The spectators throw objects into the bath tubs, one is filled with cement, one with plaster. The artist allows us to see the difference in drying time between the cement and the plaster. Then the moulds are exhibited, embedded with the thrown objects.
