"A piece of street on your skin."
Die Presse

1000 white T-shirts are lying on the street. Performers and passers-by alike put on shoes provided for the purpose and step into fluorescent pink paint before walking over the T-shirts. In doing so, they leave their marks on the clothes, which are subsequently hung on lighting wires between the houses for drying. Taken down and put on, what were once footsteps can now be perceived on the body; they are dispersed in all directions by the wearers of the T-shirts.

Street wear materializes the transient exposure of the sole to the asphalt - a meeting of streets, steps, clothing, dirt and colour.
