Born 1965 in Hamburg, Germany, lives and works as a video artist
and filmmaker in Hamburg, Germany.
Between 1995 and 2002 she produced various short films such as experimental
fiction films and drawn animation films, which were shown on shortfilmfestivals
and at exhibitions. Since her diploma at the HK (visual communication)
in Hamburg 2002, she developes videoworks that include 3-6 channels.
In the installations the videoloops are related to each other and to the exhibition
space. In February 2007 she started the project „mobile projection in public
space“, where video images change the surface of urban buildings.
Synopsis:
Trapez 2 is the cinematic observation of a growing building site.
The reality of construction and deconstruction is distorted by drawn elements
and accelerated by a rhythmic luminosity.
Using time-laps photography, the documentary of work, demolition and construction
becomes an homage to the urban absurdity.
