“Factory of Found Clothes” is the name under which Russian artists Natalia Pershina-Yakimanskaya and Olga Egorova have been collaborating since the mid-1990s, in St. Petersburg. They made a place for themselves on the arts scene with installations and performances in which the ‘shed skin’ of worn clothes frequently plays a role. Oberhausen is showing the first comprehensive retrospective of their video works, supplemented by a performance developed especially for the festival.
