Anna Piroska Tóth (DAI, 2021) shares: Laverie Sentimentale is a radio program that aims to become a space of resonance by bringing back the relationalities that existed through and within the performance of the collective labour of cleaning and caring for clothes. Its first iteration will occur at state of fashion, as a creative contribution to the conference ‘Ways of Caring – Practicing Solidarity’. It will be held in the Vébé van Steijn Laundry in the city of Arnhem, a laundromat that used to welcome the first sexworkers of Spijkerstraat and still pays tribute to them with the machines bearing their names. To turn the neutral, functional, individualising environment of the laundromat into a gathering site that allows us to nurture both collectivity and intimacy Laverie Sentimentale will welcome various sonic propositions around and about emotional stains imbued in garments and the many facets of the act of cleaning.
