A Body Is Not a Part of a Head
2016
HD video, 8:05 min
‘A Body is Not Part of a Head’ consists of three short chapters, combining video, photography, spoken and written words.
Time stretches and condensates by relating the movement of rocks over millions of years to those of fingers in milliseconds. We turn inwards, simultaneously into the human subconscious and towards the core of Earth.
