In geval van nood

mixed media, performance, 2002

The gallery is situated on the outside of the bar de Schouw and is therefore in the public sphere. The text was a translation into dutch of the phrase "in case of emergency break glass". Behind this text was a piece of graffiti, a copy of the only piece of graffiti in the gents toilets of the bar. The graffiti shows a flower and the text No Border(sic) No Nations. During the week long exhibition, no one smashed the glass, so I made the symbolicdestruction of the gallery on the last evening of the show, commemorated on DVD produced by the gallery.
