concept & vision

we make two videos to reflect on and explore the operations we do to our containers. STACK (30 min) and CUT (62 min), as the essential manipulation of this beloved object, conjure up inventories of altered containers and container assemblies that are both possible and fantastical, obsessively repetitive and methodical—our almost-parametric, hand-made, low tech investigation
