The Walls is sweating

Multimedia installation created for the locker-room of the cultural center Tour à Plomb in Brussels. The videos, paintings, and ceramics show the city’s regurgitation through the showers of the room. Brussels’s sewers are internal organs shown in a metamorphosis phase. The Walls is sweating is an expression borrowed from Virginia Woolf in her novel Orlando. The grammatical error is on purpose; it transcribes the plurality of walls that constitute the city as an entity, transforming.


The Walls is Sweating was made possible thanks to the kind support of Brussels’s Sewer Museum. A particular thanks to Martin Angenot and Katerina Papadopoulos from Brussels’s Sewer museum, and Stéphan Roy from Tour à Plomb.
