RED REY

Dump of these disgusting snaps of my performance with @newleeroy @wytchings @bennibluu for @soft_centre @carriageworks . These images make me sick 📸 @jordankmunns 📸 @jacquisharah so good 😬😱

HOUSEKEEPING (2026) is a performance work by Red Rey and Kit Wu Bylett for the 25th Biennale of Sydney. It explores the invisible labour of overseas Filipino workers (OFW) in service industries such as hospitality, domestic care and adult industries. The performance follows a ghost-like figure who slowly navigates the space of White Bay Power Station, draped in a layered and textured costume constructed of embellished white face towels. As the figure walks and repeatedly calls out the word "Housekeeping," they engage directly with passerby and gathered audience members by removing the towels one by one and placing them into their hands. With the shedding of each offering, the figure is gradually revealed as an embodiment of Idiyanale, the pre-colonial Filipino deity of labour associated with horned water buffalos, carabao. The performance culminates in a staged act where audience members wash the body of Idiyanale in an act of care, service, and reverence.
