USA/Berlin 2013
4 channel video installation on billboards

Four billboards generate a space in which the spectator enters. Video loops present images from Americana: A sand dune in Death Valley, the gateway of a mansion in Beverly Hills, an empty rodeo arena and a white wall with shadows of palm trees and sea gulls. The connecting element of the projections is a cowboy standing still. Through the position of the projectors at the installation floor the spectators´ shadows become part of the picture.
