Waste Management reflects upon what is considered valuable and what is disposable, and what or who might be affected by that process of selection. This project is especially pertinent in the context of the contemporary city, where reconstruction is the ruling imperative. A dumpster was turned upside down, transforming its interior space into a cinema; a suitable container for this subject matter. The video inside – a series of deadpan interventions performed in garbage cans, dumpsters, and on the sidewalk – expresses the gamut of waste disposal and recycling situations. This piece obliquely articulates the resistant potential in everyday experiences.
