Per hour is an artwork that examines dominant monopolies that Western fashion brands, specifically ones dealing in fast fashion (H&M, Topshop, Forever21 and Zara), have on Asian developing countries as well as poor working conditions and low wages enforced on workers in their factories. The titular piece also explores the deeper implications that come from the supremacy held by Western fashion brands, such as the dominance of capitalism, the influence of globalism and the suppression of certain cultural identities, the contrast between the way clothing is displayed in stores and its inhumane origins, the physical and human presence that clothing contains as it travels from one continent to another, the eradication of the local textile and fashion industry and the ambivalence of most consumers in relation to the aforementioned problems. Each item of clothing used in this piece has statistics written on it showing hourly wage of the average worker in the country where the item was produced and this information is printed using the kitsch technique of bedazzling, thus humorously transforming the clothing from the subject of coverage to the subject of exposure. All selected items are in the colors of human skin, which indicates the human presence behind the product and no item has any cultural symbol, which indicates the suppression of cultural identity. Clothing is arranged in a way that mimics the manner of its display in fashion stores, including exhibition furniture, thus treating the observers as a part of the work (as actors playing consumer roles) and using bent and folded clothing as a reflection of the workers and their desperate situation. In the end, the piece concludes that remnants of the colonial experience are still present in aspects of modern capitalism and globalism and that these systems add to the suppression of the cultural identity of Asian developing countries and to the disparity between rich and poor countries. Another conclusion that the work comes to is that the ambivalence of Western consumers towards such problems and their will, and even the pleasure of continuing to participate in such a system, despite some of them being aware of where their clothes come from, also contributes to the disparity between developed and underdeveloped countries and the poor working conditions that workers are forced to suffer, as for many of them there is no other choice.
