Person #25

Video work

Karin FELBERMAYR [Germany]

Outline

Person #25 conceptually combines video and performance. In the video, the artist repeatedly performs a choreography of gestures and poses which she took from perfume advertisements. The editing is inspired by the animation concept of thaumatrope, which is combined with several masking techniques such as black and white stage makeup, technical masks (keying), and the use of colored light.
