BULLFIGHT IN THE CLOTH FACTORY (2022)
video 2’The video evokes the character of the working woman usually portrayed in archive newsreels depicting socialist garment factories, who works tirelessly while inthe background, two men are wrestling in the suits she has sewn. Each character minds their ‘business’, competing, and proving themselves in their own way.
The video represents the dichotomies of monotony and dynamism, female and male roles. Through the topos of the garment factory worker, we confront the absurdity of overachievement and the questionable praise of productivity.
