Ich hier, du dort

Video installation

2018

We try to catch the same line
with our eyes
and dream the same dreams.
Me here, you there.

 

 

Steadily, a massive slab of ice fastened to the ceiling melts – water dripping into a copper pan.

A film sequence is projected onto the water surface rippled by the falling drops.

We see waves washing a ship mast towards the shore, but the large piece of wood does not make it onto the beach. The projection onto the surface creates ever-changing reflections on the walls.
