It’s Been a Pleasure!

A way to stay crazy enough to work, to reincarnate yourself with the work virus. Anything to make you feel bad enough about yourself to go back to work and take orders. It’s pure work addiction in the sense of never being able to relax. A slow self-destruction that complements the slow killing of the workplace. 

If the rural animal had practised a little mindfulness on weekends and relaxed, like when you die and your sphincter muscles release all tension, the shit would never stop coming. `Redneck Manifesto´(1997)

An exhibition about language, but focused on its absence. What becomes the language for the thoughts unspoken, and how does an action serve as the expression for the unarticulated?

The movie “Devotion (60min)” is on loop throughout the exhibition and starts every full hour. Welcome!
