A collection of moulds to repeat the shape of the ordinary along with props for domestic drama casted out laundry powder.

The repetition is the key element to create new perceptions, to raise question and understanding.
That is what children do by re-acting everyday scenes with toys; this is what we do to learn. If we turn the positive shapes to negative, the visual landscape of ordinary goods becomes a mould for repetition.
