... the day after

... every year it feels like doing the same thing again ...

“Limassol’s grand carnival parade is the most significant event of the year as regards the public’s participation. 13 February 2005: In collaboration with the Limassol Municipality’s Refuse Collection Department and the island’s Health Services, 80 street-sweepers collected – after the celebration – two tones of confetti from the 4km-long central thoroughfare of the city. The confetti was taken to the Nicosia Municipal Centre. Through this attempt to make the celebration one’s own, and the transfer of both the collective and the personal act, one endeavors to present a poetical deception of the absence and an abstract recording of the exceptional.” (Extracts from the exhibition exhibition catalogue - Accidental Meetings where the work Sunday was presented).
