RENING, performance in Borås storaTorget

The artist washed textiles dyed blood red and then carefully placed them in the snow in the square, where the wet bundles of fabric quickly stiffened in the cold. In the end, the square was filled with what looked like dead bodies. The work is a protest against what  happened in January in the artist’s former homeland, Iran, where the regime brutally kills, abuses, and persecutes people who demand freedom and democracy.
