video installation, 2002
Watching laundry in a washing machine, turning over and around can be captivating and contemplative. Referring to this effect, washing machine bodies were equipped with a new content: Aquarium and open fire which also capture the human eye and even more intensely as the movement is combined with light.
The presentation on monitors - luminous medium for movement - reveals the connection with television, a medium that has a similar impact on many people. Television as a substitute for a fireplace? Or do we in fact appreciate fireplace and aquarium only on a tv screen?
