a Performance by Rubber Glove Dove Collective. 

CLEAN is a grotesque baroque that squeezes through the cracks of the polished surface. The duo Rubber Glove Dove Collective consists of Anna Caroline Kristensen and Astrid Haugesen

A queer feminist anti-fairytale 🧚‍♀️
singing like a bird
endless harmony work
legs for days
no escape

Already during the performance setup, passing people stopped, pulled out their phones, returned, filmed, and laughed. Quickly, the shopfront turned into a vitrine, exhibiting bodies in baroque dresses made of yellow rubber gloves. They cleaned the window. The light, open and humoristic air of these interactions almost hid the voyeuristic gaze that was cemented in several videos and images on countless devices. The usually invisibilized practice of women who clean was recognized and became
hyper-present.

Pose here, a wave, a smile.

The performance combined a sound piece, a feminist reinterpretation of the Cinderella fairytale, a choreography of baroque dances and interactions reflecting on competition, support and comedy.
