The images take on a pictorial flattening of their space to almost a collage or even decollage-esque effect. One that constructs upon itself with beams and wires but also one that excavates into itself by spraying away ground or simply digging. The workers are very much pieces of this space. So they may be read as material, as cost, like the sheet metal. As tools in a work and world. The material reality of what is filmed, labour, and the relevance of that to any history of collage in using found materials or repeated stacking and sticking and tearing of sheets of publications or signifiers to work.
