Synopsis
s/top (b/w): Inspired by a sled-accident I deal with the subject „alps and danger (of accidents). The crutch as a prerequisite for reconvalescence is used as an installation object. A monitor into the handle projects x-rays.
b/order (colour): From standstill to motion: In the installation b/order subjects of s/top are developped further to more general questions about borders: On personal, geografical, linguistical borders and their crossing, dissolution and limitation.
b/order has as well been edited as a tape version (6: 30 minutes) and played at festivals and cinemas.
