Abra

Ali, in their video, Abra, is in conversation with Amazon’s customer-obsessed mascot, Peccy. Their discussion about working-class labour, surveillance and bubbles (economic, social and soap filled), literally paints the video orange. They contend that orange is the contemporary color of labour and surveillance, it is racialized and classed.
