• Photography, Digital Painting

Calm, reflecting water surfaces, gently and evenly undulating water, bubbling and splashing water. The eye seeks the structure, the rhythm. In the detail, in the extreme enlargement and in the deliberate inclusion of analog and digital blurring, the structures melt into amorphous illusions that seem very painterly, as if the camera had swapped brush and paint. The rhythm of linear structures flowing into one another creates an illusion of shimmering movement that lends the images their remarkable vibrancy.

The dancer explores the boundary between the inside of her body and the outside world, under and above water. Threads and colors swirl in streaks, hands and gauze weave and glide in the water, cloths float under bubbles.
The moving shots of heads and bodies in the water reflect the floating and swaying moment of unstable equilibrium in the liquid element. There is no localization and no stability in space and time.

In Perpetuum is an ongoing project. With the large-scale projection of my videos/visuals, I interact directly with the performers, transforming the time experienced and created with the camera into a new dimension of the musical or dance counterpart. Images of moving recordings. In a globalized, totally networked and mobile, Janus-faced world, it is important to take stock of people. What do our desires and fears look like? In what movement do we exist in the present moment - what moves people?

Time is not a line that runs through a series of of moments.
Time is an instant, where all lines meet. Richard Powers, The time of our singing
Photography is said to isolate a tiny point in the flow of time. It is also said to show a "decisive moment", or at least a "momentum" carved out of the past and eternity. But what if such claims are not true? Seamless transitions between body and architecture are created, where the technoid structures of the lines seem to mill into the body like radiation. The composition creates condensations - tensions to the point of tearing.

In Perpetuum is an ongoing project. With the large-scale projection of my videos/visuals, I interact directly with the performers, transforming the time experienced and created with the camera into a new dimension of the musical or dance counterpart. The interplay of moving images meanders and intensifies the public space. Visuals from reanimated still images and slow motion moving shots interact with my artistic partners to create performative installations.
