Performance/action for the camera
3-channel video installation, DVD 30:00, stereo, (excerpts: 11:48), 1999
Various actions with colored and shiny adhesive tapes take place on three monitors. In long, static shots, the camera documents the creation of images and compositions. The artist is both an actor on the picture stage and part of the picture being created. If no action takes place, the composition dominates, which is perceived as a surface. When the pictorial space is re-entered, space and proportions return to consciousness and the picture changes through a new action. Some of the actions are accompanied by music and the camera is moved by hand over the resulting images. Part of the overall installation is the stage floor on which the actions took place.
