»The work is not really funny work […] but more a reflection on humour.«
– Sasha Pirker
A woman ironing. She takes a shirt, hot-presses it, puts the iron down. Clapperboard. Now she presses the next shirt and puts the iron down. Clapperboard. Over and over again. In all this continual repetitiveness, one thing changing almost goes unnoticed: The pile of ironing in the background is growing. Suddenly the woman ironing stops. She laughs.
