Since the 1980s, I have been working with oil painting. In Klang-Farbe- Bewegung (1989), I projected images of my paintings on dancers. I then started to take still photographs of the dancers in the image projection and incorporated them into interactive sound panels for Tell Me! . . . a secret . . . (2007). In the dance piece Polyvision (2009), I transferred the image world into video and experimented with the relationship of moving paintings and choreography.
This installation, The Other Side, is a collaboration with the Harvard University Dance Program. Harvard students developed poses and characteristic expressions through improvisation.
