Location: Watertower (Wasserspeicher), Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg
Materials: Hanging paper rolls, Ladders, Markers, Lighting, Sound Environment
Sound: multi-channel sine wave composition in collaboration with Jörg
Hiller
Performers: Students and former students of the Art Academy of Berlin-Weißensee
Content: Texts on the subject fire and arson collected from the Internet.
12 enormous paper rolls are hung in a circle of brick arches in the cellar of
the Water Tower in Berlin. At the beginning of the performance, twelve persons
are stationed at each roll, and begin to write in large black letters from texts
which they hold in their hands. As the surface of the paper is filled, the rolls
are pulled downwards, until the floor is gradually covered with crumpled sheets
of written paper. The resulting installation remained for the length of the
exhibition.
