Overview

We all carry machines is a lecture-performance that encompasses a film screening and spoken testimony of a meeting with a group city maintenance workers. This is a side-project of my artistic PhD in which I use performance to explore the social component of images that are made during practice-based research. Every autumn the streets of Amsterdam fill up with fallen leaves. The various brown hues that carpet the city are often a beautiful sight, but it lasts only for a moment as a day of rain can turn everything into a slippery brown mush. Alongside the fallen leaves, figures dressed in orange also appear. Leaf blowers.
