WASH is all about time.
How long does a 40° colour wash last?
While time is defined by the ticking of clocks, a colour wash has its own definition of existence. It starts from the moment the start button is pressed and ends when it the does its last spin.
Time frees itself from our everyday concept time.
That's why I find it interesting to listen to the full cycle of a washing machine.
Find here a collection of washing machines doing a 40° ( warm ) colour wash.
WASH will be part of ART'S BIRTHDAY 2022.
