Strolling the everyday - looking at craft and class through pipes

It’s about how researching pipes, a part of infrastructure and everyday life, can be a tool to see inequality in our society. To see how class issues and the consequences of capitalism are present in every corner of our everyday lives.   It has to do with seeing our cities as organisms, as bodies, connected by systems. Systems, transferring matter around, making the organism live and function. But the systems can be infected, and that will affect us.    It’s about connecting systems, to expose what’s hidden; the pipes buried in the grown, together with corporations’ greed.   It’s about depicting systems, with systems. Using weaving to produce material. To make components. Give the work ability to be in a state of possible transformation.   To make a visual comment, to start a conversation through craft.   It’s about creating systems, to make systems, that speaks of systems.
