In June 2015, the Berlin-based performance artists Eva & Adele released a Swatch at Okwui Enwezor’s Venice Biennale. It is pink and gold, and is titled Futuring, the artists’ term for “designating a time unfinished, caught up in the process of developing and revealing itself, challenging people to take an active role in shaping their own future. Futuring is also the principle of the artists’ performance, the unquestioned freedom of sexual self-determination that EVA & ADELE themselves represent.” [via]
A numbered, limited edition of 585 was released in Venice, and an unnumbered, unlimited, but otherwise identical version was released everywhere else.
After Adele’s years-long legal battle to have her birth certificate issued in her proper gender, the pair were married in 2011. Eva, the shorter of the two, passed away in May 2025.
