KEK!°!! Legends (2025)
livestreamed duration performance,
dimensions variable

First commissioned by Vorbrenner, Innsbruck, KEK!°!! Legends was an adaptation and restaging of the work for Kotti-Shop in Kottbusser Tor, Berlin. LIke the original, this six day, durational performance involved transferring the briquette production facility from our studio in Brandenburg and working for eight hours a day to produce briquettes. For Kotti-Shop the focus of the piece shifted to the manufacture of briquettes with embedded words taken from Karl Marx’s ‘Fragment on Machines.’ The day’s production activity was livestreamed to Twitch and, as we were also living and sleeping in the gallery, we did sleep streams every night to enable online viewers to monitor our periods of rest. The sleep streams were also projected onto the gallery windows during the night time.

On the seventh day we presented a shop window installation of the text briquettes that had been produced.
