A Choreography for two imprisoned Eyes

Veronika Bökelmann: A choreography for two imprisoned Eyes

A choreography for two ...

A choreography for two imprisoned eyes shows two eyes using a beauty tool to shapen the eyelashes. A macro exposure observes the separate, slow movements of the pupils in the static frame of the beauty tool. These blown up fragmentation of a body part provokes a high level of abstraction. The eye loses its eye-dentity. The tiny metal sticks of the beauty tool may seem like prison bars; becoming an architectural magnitude. The pupils transform to ensnared creatures kept imprisoned in two separate cages; moving, sometimes slow, sometimes fast, communicating with each other – almost as if performing a zig zagging dance.

Ane Lan: Europe

Ane Lan: Europe

A woman, or one who appearing to be so, dressed in a traditional costume is holding up a mirror in which she sees the stars of EU flag. She starts to sing a song in which she declares her unwillingness to marry someone (read: join the EU), and hoping for a better future in solitude, singning the contract and seling out the white linen from her brides chest. But suddenly she finds that there is dirt/oil in the bottom of her chest, the stars of the EU are fading and reportage images of excessive consummation, environmental catastrophe and third world starvation follow.
