Die Artistin in der Zirkuskuppel

Directed by: Ashley Hans Scheirl

Cast: Ashley Hans Scheirl

Collection: Kontakt Collection, Vienna

In the first part of the film, Scheirl (the artist) explores the space between the ceiling and the wardrobe (the circus dome). In the second part, which is structured by a harsh sound (machine guns? falling coins?), she repeatedly falls to the floor in a rhythmically looped sequence, as if being executed (or having a heart attack).
