I rearrange books on the book table in the foyer of the Kunsthalle Basel. I use them to lay a foundation on which I then stack various towers with colorful everyday plastic objects.
I take out a sieve attached to a broomstick and tell the story of the sieve. I discovered it at the market in Paris. A vendor used it to pass goods, money and change across the wide market stall. Finally, I promote Monika Kästli's book. I did this performance for her book launch.
