Coffee, 2001. Video, no sound, 9'22'. Netherlands, Argentina. (excerpt) (Confort Moderne, Poitiers, FR, Museum Van Bommel Van Dam, Venlo, NL, Dulchinea, Istanbul)
An elderly woman is taking a sip of coffee. This trivial and minimal action is performed very slowly. Inspired by the camera techniques of Hollywood western movies (Sam Peckinpah), the act is charged with drama through the use of a series of long, slow shots from various camera angles put together to form a sequence of ten minutes.
