The video was shot in “Morske Gradina” (“sea garden”) in Varna, Bulgaria. There, the artists
encountered a modell of the Black Sea. Because the model is not cleaned regulary, natural
waste and waste from the park visitors end up in the bassin. It is not allowed to enter the
model, so people are not allowed to get in, but only to look at. In a performative action, the
artists clean the model and therefor hint to the “secret“ space of the deep sea, where all the
actual waste from the countries surrounding the Black Sea end up. Also the model shows
these cities: Varna, Burgas, Sewastopol, etc. Images of the cleaning action are mixed with footage shot in the aquarium, which is just besides the model.
