The colouration springs first into focus: in orange, and in part dressed in yellow, people in fine garments, sporting hats and scarves, carrying bags, gloves and sandals coloured in blue. They stand with cameras in their hands, lit up in front of a dark blue background, in groups of three, the one similar to the other. But not only is the play with the complementary colours of import in Peter Aerschmann's animated photography entitled "Illumination" from 2010; the opposites of hot and cold also come into play in the garments: sandals are combined with gloves, and desert attire is interwoven with nordic knitting patterns. The effect is startling when the camera lights start flashing: The viewer of the work without sounds is turned into an object within the piece and also illuminated if he/she so happens to take a look at the standing, floating photographers from below. Hence it is this selfsame play of opposites and the change in perspectives which preserve "Illumination" inside of our memory.
