Waterwagon

2007

Fiberglass
600 x 215 x 165 cm

Waterwagon is part of Slave City, a completely self-sufficient city free of hunger, sickness and unemployment. Inhabitants perform the slave labour necessary for its smooth operation. When they become redundant, their organs are sold and the rest is recycled as food, bio fuel and compost. Ultimately, that will also be the fate of the figures who pull this wagon that provides the city with the water it cannot do without.

Waterwagon (2007) was part of the following exhibition(s):
The Rebellion, Luxembourg Art Week, Luxembourg (Lux), 2023
‘Let’s Get Physical’, Atelier Van Lieshout, Rotterdam (NL), 2020 – 2021
‘SlaveCity’, De Pont, Tilburg (NL), 2016
