I AM THE MOUTH II

HD animation, 2014, 6 min. 10 sec.

In the video “I Am the Mouth II” (2014), a big, animated mouth describes how the words, in the form of a sound wave, are finding their way through various materials, including the body of a listener. The artificial, disembodied mouth stands for the artist’s possibilities of having an influence on her surroundings. In the work that literally „speaks for itself“, one can find references to Samuel Beckett‘s monodrama „Not I“, as well as to the Internet phenomenon ASMR (videos made with the aim of producing a „brain massage“ sensation in the viewer).
