Flaw

1-channel video (2’15”, 2013/2016)
2.00:1 spherical widescreen, stereophonic audio

Flaw explores the cartography of the body through extreme close-ups of one’s own physical ‘imperfections‘, accompanied by a soundtrack full of distortions and acoustic textures by Sebastian Schönfeld (Owl Yeah).
A clinical examination of body parts and an honest, intimate self-portrait whose images highlight specific details – hair follicles, freckles, blemishes, pores, orifices, cuts. It is nearly impossible to identify what is shown with images bordering the abstract. (Text: Post Brothers)
