Bregula works with video, photography and installation. Her practice questions the institutional parameters of contemporary art, and its value within society.

For Glasgow International she presented a new film, which was produced in Glasgow and engaged local residents as actors.

Set in a fictional city in a state of flux, it depicted the private obsessive collecting habits of a woman and her relationships with those she encounters. The film raised oblique questions around the acquisition of collections, and institutional attempts to preserve collective identity.
