the surge

Three screens set up vertically, each subdivided into three further image surfaces, show the same film. Slight changes in the playback speeds of the nine screens create a (pictorial) chaos that is nevertheless always brought back to order. Interrupted by depictions of bodies, some of them of an explicitly sexual nature, the film contrasts two ways of looking at (world) order, the religious and the scientific are juxtaposed and expose their common root in the "will to knowledge". The viewer embarks on a twofold pilgrimage that finds its common goal - in the erupting volcano.
