Three buildings, all made with thin battens, one only with three walls; it creates an open space in the middle where a pile of colorful clothes lay. On top lays a LCD-screen with a time-lapse; a row of faces in black and white flashes for your eyes, the carrier of clothing looks back at me. I see women and men, briefly in motion.

The next building looks unfinished, tilted on its side; a spatial sculptural-drawing from battens standing in space. Leaning towards one side, it’s a kind of travel-kit (blankets on a simple frame); on the other side is something like a door.

The third house has walls and roof, is this the house of arrival, the destination? Another travel-kit and a slightly surreal bowl with two casted hands at the bottom. Whether the stay here is permanent or not remains open to question.
