                                            Title: The Art of Making Money

                                            Year: 2011

                                            Performance presented at the event The Dismantled Cabaret, organized by Alex Kovacs at Chats Palace, London.

                                            In a period of crisis, this performance is a fiction about an easy way on how to get money.
                                            Dressed as a business woman, I put my painted red nails in the soil to plant a bank note in a pot. I put water with a  watering can and I wait for it to grow up. Because it doesn't work, I go to the audience and I ask for money as a beggar.
                                            After I get some money from the audience I plant it in the same pot and I put water with the watering can again.
                                            Then I leave with the money I earned.
