Mittwoch immer die Gummihose
(1994)

The video shows rituals of eating compulsion and refusal in the dressing of one's own body.
For the video, Grau performs in a specific setting for the camera. The close-ups bring the various body parts close to the viewer, creating intimacy and making up for the distance created by the video. The rotating movement of the body creates a kind of vortex with the continuous trantella music. In contrast to the video installation and the live performance, the timing, which reaches the pain threshold, brings the video to a head.
