Lucky You, Negotiating Fortune
Pick it up, (yes, it’s for you), scratch it, keep it or toss it. Series of scratch cards, text underneath: The next one will be better, 2011.


Not Before Long
Hold the ice as long as it's comfortable, hand it over, wait and repeat. Still from a film in which the ice melts in the hands of the two protagonists, 2011.


We’re in this together
Every object has it's built-in use. A paperclip combines two things together. It is called into action when we are in the process of negotiation (you and me, this and that, making allies, forging connections). Onto one agreement two clauses are added (clip, clip), onto each of those two, two are added (clip, clip) (clip, clip) and so on. We can go on as long as the first one can hold the weight of the rest. After that point, (stop) adding one more is adding one too many (thank you for listening), 2011.


Clockwork
Movement, the internal mechanism of a timepiece. Still from a short film, 2011.


Window
Turning CCTV into a window in the London Underground network. The CCTV footage from underground platform is projected overground on station entrance while footage from overground is projected underground. The whole project on display at the London Transport Museum, Sense and the City Exhibition. In collaboration with Ana Minquez, 2011
