Unwatchable Hundred Minutes
The video Unwatchable Hundred Minutes is a new version of a work from 2020. The new form consists of audio, in the older version the individual sequences were shaped in the harmonic spirit of Johann Sebastian Bach. This time, the music shapes the same images in an existential/anxious spirit.
This work consists of one hundred minute sequences, which are diverse in nature. Stylized excerpts from older (but also newer) works are combined with everyday scenes of life. This (even time-varying) tangle of pictures has the ambition to point out the transience of being. Despite the partly existential and melancholic atmosphere of work, the video is also an attempt to celebrate life.
