Es wird immer Ärger (Caliwood)
1,5 channel video installation

A family from Cali (Colombia) consisting of three women aged between 45 and 92 receive a visit from their relative. As an artist, she is trying to work her way out of the precarious circumstances she has been exposed to since her migration to Austria. But when she sees the conditions of the three women, she quickly tries to involve them in subsidized art projects in order to secure their basic needs, at least while she is there. They decide to sew a modernist tent together, as one of the women worked in confection. The artist films the city, its poverty and questions her internalized Eurocentric view of her own homeland and art.
