Performance, “Abwehr Performance - Festival”, Berlin, Germany, 2007, 5:42 min
Four female dancers move, each one for herself, to songs that cannot be heard by the viewer. With their stiletto heels they appear to tear up the tar covered rooftop; the electronically amplified sound of these charged dance steps create a new wild hearing experience, which in turn unites the isolated movement of the dancers. The performance takes place on a former border section between West and East Berlin; this roof served as a patrol route for GDR border soldiers and was heavily guarded.
