This work was first performed in Stockholm, Grandia 2004. It has since been actualized twice. It takes its starting point from the overload of cooking program across TV channels in the U.K and Sweden. The obsession of actual seeing and doing. I wanted to pervert this visual popular TV culture and transform it into a live art performance where I could over time build, destroy, create a monstrous landscape of 'stuff' highlighting the understanding of matter as a visual language.
