In the first, almost a documentary, we discreetly observe a worker as she cleans an opera house; in the second, a narrative is built from the rapports between two fictional clean-up girls and a tyrannical diva who lives in the theaters attic, as she prepares for one final performance of "Antigone". Both videos share one theme (the relationship between the individual and work), focusing on the individuals (in)visibility in urban contexts and how it is affected by the tasks which he performs - temporary as a way of being, a way of thinking, a way of finding a place. It is understood that this principle rather than an issue of precarious employment, is the ontological condition of our times. Written by
