.... I filmed the video SALVE REGINA in Piazza Grande, on the main square of Palmanova, Italy. Piazza Grande was empty and it shined in unearthly light on a day when I filmed the video. In the middle of the square was a beautiful, rotating carousel with horses. The video displaced us in a time of repetition (neither beginning nor ending – Ouroboros – Uroborus. The video takes my art work SALVE REGINA to the next level.
.... I am asking you: Do you hear the primeval ringing, the rattling and the children's laughter of your ancestors?
