DIGGING OUT NEW STATEMENTS
(under the influence of the full moon)
2008-2009
documented actions
HDV / color / stereo
running time: variable

The first place where this performance took place was at the main cemetery in the city of Braunschweig in 2007.

On an attempt to capture the multiple ways to describe this simple action and to explore its possible meanings, I buried more than fourteen shovels in different contexts. Three shovels were buried on the small graveyard. The towns name is Stuhr-Heiligenrode, Germany. 

Another one lies directly under the goal-keepers feet on this football field.
