Song of Flesh and Image Was Made Body

1985 16min

The video starts as a criminal story of one man chasing another, whereby the emphasis is not laid on the final outcome, but on colour surfaces that sneak into the black and white world of industrial plant. Then the colour instantly covers the entire video surface, a naked man's body appears and the camera starts revealing its details. The end of the video presents seemingly frozen bodies that, within the medium of motion pictures, endeavor once again to find the illusion of stillness offered by fine art.
