Revolving Histories (#bangbang-1878)

Laughing Hole
(2006)

https://www.laribot.com/home

Three to five women dressed in work smocks move around the floor scattered with cardboard signs, laughing continuously. They pick up the signs, hold them up and reveal the texts written in felt-tip pen, then placard the walls with them. In real time a musician mixes and plays the sound of their laughter which fills the space. The six-hour performance generates the installation, which consists of the signs on the walls and a recorded version of the laughter.
