MATCH 2 explores competition - an essential characteristic of neo-liberalism, which determines not only the market economy, but also our daily lives, work and relationships. MATCH 2 questions the ideas for improvement and progress that drive the systems in power - economic, hierarchical and family - and in which there is no interest or relevance. We explore competition through grotesque demonstrations of ego and aggression, linking the social with the animal and the national. Keeping the competition going requires a kind of balance - if one starts to win, the game is over. The two players are each other's mirror image, discovering their differences as they try at the same time to achieve the same image, revealing the most subtle manifestations of competition - constant judgement, comparison and envy between individuals
