Inspired by Jean Cocteau’s play The Human Voice.

“…A huge installation taking up the entire floor of an art gallery, takes in this way a form that is both cold and brutal. Large pipes connecting a sink and toilets transplanted there run through the space, their path is enigmatic, just like the geography of the areas they connect. Something is definitely circulating, transitivity reigns but in which direction and to reach what – whom?…”
