28 TASKS
Curatorial Team

The table shows a screenshot of the construction schedule for a large-scale factory project in Turkey. The list of various tasks—ranging from excavation, formwork, concrete pouring, and reinforcement splicing for the building’s foundation—hints not only at the scale but also the duration of various intricate events that rely on one another during the process of a construction. As one considers the 28 various tasks spread over two months, one also wonders about the numerous undocumented lives and stories that are hidden behind this careful log of dates, colors, and symbols.
