A video of a man in raincoat on a theatre-stage.
This set-up is the presentation of an upcoming film-project that I started in 2017.
The model is of a sculpture / filmset that I presented a few months later:
KI-NE-MA (check the link if you like).
It is a representation of my former artist-studio that contained a miniature film-theatre. A backstage was situated outside the window of my studio.
The video’s are of an archetypical character that does seemingly random things in the theatre: entering through a window, closing curtains, pulling down a projection screen and looking at a thunderstorm that is raging on stage.
The sentence “Ready when you are” can be understood as an invitation to the audience to play and collaborate together; to join me on stage.
