The five-part series of works explores imagined pictures of dying and disappearing and different subtexts such as decay, pain, physical degeneration, spirituality or ideas of nature and transfers them into video performances. Large fabrics painted with thermochromic colours were physically worked by the body. Through the body heat, the colour of the cloths became transparent, his imprint visible and a time-based, performative painting emerged, which has been filmed. The ephemeral images show fragmented, partially deformed, constantly changing human vexed images, and depending on the point of view, new constellations and narrative connections open up between the individual video sequences shown on large monitors.
