video installation in a loop
This is a video installation, which deals with the question of drive, endless repeating and persistence. In a videoloop, a runner circulates in a nightsetting around the camera, keeping a stable distance from it. He therefore also, allegorically, runs around the beholder, who finds himself in the middle of an imaginary circle. He becomes a part of the run, accumulation. The installation is
primarily based on sound experience: when the runner disappears from the shot, we can perceive the sound of the run, which takes place behind us. Afterwards, the sound completes the situation of the runner reappearing on the other side of the shot.
