This performance was carried out together with a sex worker. We took all of our clothes off and then exchanged them.

CONCEPT
With this action we sought to address what it means to be “a whore”. Every woman has been called a whore at some point in her life, for no particular reason. Whore: old, young, ugly, pretty, dirty, full of diseases, too lazy to have a real job, rich, poor.
Whore: misbehaved, promiscuous.
Whore: economical, gender and ethnic based discrimination, no political representation, no rights. Whore: visible, invisible.
