Ein stilles Lichtspektakel:



Corpus Christi
Inspired by the concept of uniting breath and bodily sensations with vision, this silent video was filmed in the magnificent King's College Chapel in Cambridge, UK. In it, I draw parallels between the transcendental body of Christian mysticism and the rigid body of the chapel building. Stained-glass windows and skeletal rib-vaults of the chapel's ceiling are abstracted by the camera into an absorbing, hypnotic vision of light penetrating expanding and contracting lungs.
