What kind of a place is a boutique without clothes?
1
Setting up the 'boutique'
Clearing the place completely. Claiming 'this is a clothes shop'. Waiting for clients.
2
Starting the business
Trading (our) clothes against clothes (of our clients). Repairing zippers, shortening trousers, taking more clothes from our clients. Waiting for more clients.
3
Taking stock and making lists
How many shirts, skirts, trousers, dresses? Under- and swimwear must go. How many square meters? How many doors, lamps, nails in the wall? How many visitors, clients, window-shoppers? How many languages? How many pieces is a suit made of? A jacket? A collar? Pants?
4
Starting the production
How do you work? An artist, an architect, a fashion designer and two anthropologists are showing movies to each other.
What do you make? A public discussion between and about people and things.
