The Dress (Das Kleid) | |||||
![]() Video, 1999 (DV on S-VHS, 90 sec. Loop, colour, mute) Projected per video beam Camera/editor: Wolf-Ingo Römer |
The film loop shows the abstract image of a white block of plastic concert-hall
seating. A woman wearing a flowery summer dress wanders through the rows
of seats. Her head cannot be seen. She emerges at various unpredictable
points among the seats, gradually fading away into transparency. After
a while the strapless dress - without its wearer - can be seen draped
over the armrest of one of the chairs. It too then disappears. The woman
again begins walking between the rows of seats.
