Not without irony, "Peripheries of pleasure" recreates one of the usual scenarios of low-quality tourism with a site-specific intervention that transforms the exhibition room into a vacation rental space that visitors can enjoy for a day inside of the museum's usual hours and prices. The installation includes a video with YouTube images of the well-known act of balconing, in which young tourists jump, under the influence of alcohol, into the hotel pools, which on many occasions leads to serious injuries or loss of life. These sequences are accompanied by images that represent another of the concepts of global tourism: “pubcrawling” that is practiced in Magaluf and El Arenal.
