"Estendal"
2009
Performance/installation presented at Mariana Jones art gallery, Miguel Bombarda street, Porto.
This performance consisted of hanging and catching clothes (paintings on paper), in a repetitive and uninterrupted action. The intention was to reflect on the blind and monotonous routines of domestic labour, practices which habitually become mechanical, automatic. The performance was a reflection on a non-reflective practice.
It was an action that touched the absurd and which represented, in an exaggerated way, certain necessary everyday behaviours.
