Coffee Shop Ladies
Documentation of an interactive piece
2004-05, 7:35 min

In his interactive work "Coffee Shop Ladies" he blanks out the hands and faces of young women, art students, chatting in cafes, to protect their identity. By clicking on the blank spaces they are transformed into amorphous body shapes and a soundtrack is activated on which their everyday gossip and chitchat can be heard. (From the "Treibsand" booklet)
