2020

26th of September 2020

Created for IN LIMEN
'This is Not a Magritte Performance' #Ed.2

Performed at the opening of the exhibition 'What we Don't Have, we Can Create', PADA Studios, industrial park Baía do Tejo, prior CUF factories, Barreiro, Lisbon

Sound performance for blindfolded audience members


Evoking the memories of the people that worked at CUF, quoting their sentences and extending on their senses, emotions, thoughts. The bitter-sweet taste of pride and suffering, of being stuck to a machine for hours and years, of the repetitive beating of the factory and the work itself, of the long hours and poor pay. Of living and becoming a product of CUF for all it encompassed, of seeing and being part of its never-ending empire. The body and the machine become one, and they have an unstoppable rhythm, that of production. As the factory fades so do the workers.
