I made this video yesterday. The gloves I found in a junk shop on Bischofstraße a week or so ago, very very thin and angular and never worn. I can’t get them on my hands. I think it was the imaginary sign language on the news this week that made me rattle them in front of the camera to see what came out. In the end it looked rather sad. Very slowed down they are like a bird in flight, or some pair of things dancing. The music is Nun ist alles überwunden, an anonymous aria here performed by Cantus Cölln, Concerto Palatino and conducted by Konrad Junghänel.
Meanwhile for the exhibition: my model is in production today and will be delivered early next week. I have to wait for it to arrive before completing the final edit of the video. In the meantime we’re beginning the install tomorrow morning.
