About

“What the Market Bares” is a site-specific video installation concerning labor migration and material culture. Responding obliquely to tensions between the Serbian diaspora and townspeople who remained behind, the artists set up a free photo booth in the town square offering a portrait to anyone who would share a sentence on one thing they bring from abroad or one thing they receive from above. The photographer were assembled into a looping video installation projected on the windshield of a workers’ bus in the main station of the small town of Kučevo during the thematic artist residency, “The Return of the Gastarbeiter.”
