The 'Infinity Loop' series

These works are actually works about work.
By using professional cleaning tools as brushes, the paintings accumulate a large number of paint layers. They document the traces of the cleaning lady, the repetetive movements that in reality is the opposite of painting - as cleaning is removing other peoples traces.

For hundreds of millions of people - most of them women - this kind of work is their destiny. They have no choice but to wash floors every day of their life. This is my tribute to the invisible workers and the unnoticed housewifes of the world.

 

The project title derives from the actual washing process - when washing with the round mop correctly, one should make a contiunos row of loops resembling a tilted number 8; the infinity sign.

​
