Five mixed media sculptures, 2011

The informal economy is in a certain sense
related to the concept of 'informal art', as is
the case with sculptures made of discarded
or reused objects and thus connected with
the visible recycling strategies in informal
economies.

The contribution by Kaleb de Groot consists
of recycling his own work and the contents
of a small, neglected storage room at SMBA.
Among the things De Groot includes are the
publications which were lying there, discarded
exhibition materials, and even the remains
of what must once have been art objects
