Looking for women to take part in an artwork about unconditional trust

As an extra, your task is to come to Moderna Museet, one at a time, at an appointed time (a specific time on Thursday 22 April 4, Friday 23 April, Saturday 24 April or/and Sunday 25 April). You will sit by a table for fifteen minutes and act like you are the first person to arrive at a rendezvous. You can for example look at your watch from time to time or leaf through some magazines.

The piece is a constructed situation in which a stream of women circulates through a space: they come, wait for each other and leave. The work builds on and works with unconditional trust. Wikström argues that there is a surplus of humanity and that this surplus is inexhaustible. By participating you will become a part of the chain of trust build by the participating women. The work discusses also the feelings and thoughts of the person who sits and waits. Is waiting just an irritating interruption, or maybe a rare oppurtunity to be idle?
