I contacted the director of the beurs to find out if he would need a cleaner on the same day on the same day of the final performance. Unfortunately he was on vacation.
Because there were not much paint left to clean, I decided to clean it myself.

MOMENTUM - FULL
an ongoing process in transparency
the proposition to ThisArtfair




For the third stage of Momentum a cleaner will assist me in cleaning the paint. To integrate a person that respresents a cleaning service is a way to make their work visible. One of the purposes of their visibility is to brake the romantic idea of the autonomous artist.
I contacted the cleaning service affiliated to the beurs van berlage, in order to book a cleaner that would clean with me.

Questions :
-What is the role of the public in this piece?
I used the art fair not as platform to make the work public but more as a studio.
The public is directly linked to the possibility of making the work ‘real’. For without them the fair wouldn’t exist, nor would the performance exist without the fair.






The agreement was that vaseline needed to be applied before the paint, in order to keep the floor clean.
This made the paint flow outside of the vaseline. Therefore the stage 3 of the performance (the cleaning part) was directly integrated to stage 1.
The shape of the leftovers of the performance is predetermined by the conditions implied by the exhibition space (the retrieval of the paint).
