Symbiosis
In a globalized society, where the market principles impose consumption to such an extent that it is causing a staggering amount of waste, so much so that recycling campaigns are urgently needed, ultimately in this 'garbage' society, the street cleaners continue to be considered some sort of pariah, in close contact with those residues, with that 'dirt' imposed on us by that same society as a necessity. Even though they’re key to the maintenance of a supposedly essential urban decorum, they’re still placed from a conceptual point of view on the edge of the community, in a border space between the human world and some other world that is closer to the one of beasts feeding on waste
