My video installations are an ongoing research about motion and perception in cinema. Why is the camera always moving and the projector not? This video installation is made with a special mirror recording device which is also used to make the projection move. The video projection starts on one side of the exhibition space, moves over the ceiling, and ends at the other side of the space. When the sportman jumps up, the videoframe follows his movement.
