Untitled (Tattoo Project) is a continuous collaboration between artists Liz Rosenfeld and Katharina Klewinghaus. These photographs document a private performance which occurred in March 2009 between Rosenfeld and Klewinghaus, in which Rosenfeld received a five hour tattoo designed and conceived by Klewinghaus. Before receiving the tattoo Rosenfeld did not know what the tattoo would be, or where it would be placed on her body, thus Klewinghaus was forced to consider Rosenfeld's body as her own. The futurity of this tattoo is unknown, as it is Klewinghaus's to change, and Rosenfeld's to carry for her.
“Changes – OK/Zero Killed”
by Alexandre Roccoli & Christophe Chemin
Shown & performed at Radialsystem V, 6th – 7th of December 2008 and
ASVOFF, Centre Pomidou, Paris 25th-27th of September 2009.
Camera & Editing: Alexandre Roccoli, Katharina Klewinghaus & Christophe Chemin

Christophe Chemin

In “Changes – OK/Zero Killed”, the third part of the “Playground” series as well as an homage to avant-garde filmmaker Maya Deren, Alexandre Roccoli and Christophe Chemin deal with the experience of perception, combining cinema with choreography and inviting the audience to take part in the process of their own perceptual construct. “Changes – OK/Zero Killed” creates a world of illusions, a colourful kaleidoscope of challenging visual perception.
