Km of Sculpture - The Visitors, Võru, Estonia 2015
In the town of Võru, GIDEONSSON/LONDRÉ have placed five modest clockworks in different public venues – the museum,
the bus station, a gas station and a local bank office. To function, the clockworks need to be winded up each day. After the opening,
GIDEONSSON/LONDRÉ will hand over this task to the people working in the different venues, who will wind up the clocks daily for the
rest of the exhibition period for 23 days. This added repetitive moment raises awareness to both invisible labour and the different attitudes in connection to an activity that needs to be performed.
