Detox. Clean it up! — A pre-study of the contaminated land in Rejmyre

This publication assembles some of the critical results of our study of the contaminated site, in the form of a series of artworks. Each work presents its own set of questions and challenges to constituting the act of cleaning up, the definition of the waste itself and the task before us. We offer these pre-studies to accompany the other expert testimony as we grapple with this waste, our reluctantly shared inheritance. Rejmyre Art Lab's Center for Peripheral Studies is an artist-driven organization, active since 2009 in Östergötland, Sweden. The center works to create a dynamic meeting place for artists and craft practitioners with a focus on long-term, site-dependent research.
