ROMEO  2005

video-installation

18 seconds

The video-installation Romeo is the portrait of an amorous looking man who tries to hold a message high up in the air by juggling letters which are made of ceramics. The letters form different words while juggling. For example one reads LIVE but also LIE and EVIL. After several seconds he loses control, next the letters smash onto the pavement accompanied with a loud sound followed by silence. The images collapses into bright yellow for a couple of seconds and then it starts all over again.
