An artist’s work record in units of 15 minutes is a project of artistic research as much as an artistic object. It records the working hours of the artist Alexandra Reill, documenting the proportion of “artistic” and “non-artistic” work and the total amount of working hours per project in units of 15 minutes. The recording covers a year, from 07/2021 to 06/2022, and compares the working conditions of the artist with the collective agreement for a full-time office worker in accordance with the labour law of Austria.
