Soap Scum is a set of ceramic bathroom tiles, grouted and mounted, with animation frames drawn on. The tiles were covered in soap, water, shaving cream, and left to coagulate and accumulate debris in the same manner an uncleaned bathroom does.

About love, and intimacy, and sickess, growth, tenderness, dirt, poverty, communal care, naked bodies, and the language of cleanliness, and the spaces those all come together.
