welt
(1999+2022)

A naked figure sits in the middle of a sausage-like ring made of body-colored material. Next to her is a green-blue ball of wrapped fabric and a rectangular bucket of green-blue liquid. The camera looks into the scene from above. The ring and the square of the video form the frame of the scene.
The figure removes a strip from the ball of fabric and places it in the basin with the liquid, as if washing it. When she removes the strip of fabric, it glows in a pure color. The first strip of fabric is completely white. After repeating this action several times, the figure lays the white strips of fabric out in front of her and begins to cut them together. You hear the sound of scissors. The result is a pair of underpants, which the figure puts on and immediately detaches further strips of fabric from the ball of fabric and "washes" them until, in the next steps, black strips of fabric are removed from the liquid and these are cut together to form a pair of tights, first two-dimensionally, then three-dimensionally, and put on the body. This is followed by a bright yellow, from which a T-shirt is created, a pink, a blue, etc. until the woman has put on all the colors in the form of clothes on her body and finally leaves the ring. Traces of this action remain.
This action can begin again in reverse, that she washes the colored clothes and forms this green-blue ball and so on.
