“...filled with a new spirit of embracing her plan, she transforms the gent's toilet into her laundry room. She has few clothes to wash; but she's determined to stay there, so she not only gets her clothes clean but also removes any evidence which might arouse suspicions that the building has an illegal occupant. Whatever objects she takes from the offices around about hers during the night, she takes them to the laundry room afterwards and wipes her fingerprints off them. The laundry room is created by repetition: by blow drying one garment after another she generates the space where the same object and task are duplicated with each new wash. The toilet seat is used as a washboard, the wash-hand basins to rinse the soap off; the pipes help her to wring the clothes out, and finally the hand dryers finish off the operation...”
