GOODBYE

2013, Found- Footage Film, 2:38 Min., colour/ b&w, stereo

Using split-screen technique and alternating forward and reverse, the music video made of found footage creates a constantly flowing sequence of movement based on bodily touches and the resultant gestures. The most different states of emotion are elegantly related to one another in barely three minutes. The concomitant soundtrack is also the artist’s work. (Jury Statement, Crossing Europe Filmfestival Linz, 2013)

Once again Karin Fisslthaler proves her sense for gestures – as in her earlier works, body language receives special attention in this video. A hand breaking away, two bodies diverging, yet unable to leave the room – they seem caught in a Möbius strip. Wonderfully aligned and arranged found footage creates a ballet of gestures, which draws new shapes and movements on the screen. The space between the images becomes an important player. Like a virtuoso, Fisslthaler combines her music with hervisuals on all levels. (Wiktoria Pelzer, Vienna Indepentent Shorts 2013)
