The Courage to Put On the Duvet Cover deals with what generates a sense of collaboration. The project starts with the presumption of the origin of the collaboration feeling, as the friction and discomfort of coordinating with another party towards a common goal, and the memory distortion that later reframes the unpleasantness as satisfaction. It explores household chores, leaving me hesitant to do or even start them. By tracing the irritants experienced during the collaboration process with beings and things, it investigates why these tasks are postponed.

Why has humanity become reluctant to put on duvet covers?

My favourite part of the day is taking a nap while watching a YouTube video about random things that aren’t essential to know but are okay to listen to after finishing housework on a sunny day. This is created to provide such an environment. The audio playing on an iPad explains why humans have evolved to hesitate when putting on a duvet cover, exploring how collaboration has become an unpleasant sensation throughout history. On the screen, an animation of washing bedding plays on a loop.
