Novemberrain
Volvo 360 GL, rakes, felt-magic trees, black liquid, oil-collecting pit, portable immersion heater, sound from heating oil
Garage, Galerie Layr Wuestenhagen Contemporary
In the twilight of a garage a car is visible through the fog. An oil-collecting pit, in which a black liquid is boiling can be made out through the light of the cars´ headlights. The cars aerial bends its way through the room like a fishing rod. A portable immersion heater is fastened to the end of the aerial, immersed in the liquid of the pit and connected through cables to the cars battery. A group of rakes are placed around the pit. The floor is covered with Magic Trees made out of grey, white and black felt. The cars speakers emit the sound of boiling oil which reminds one of the sound of rain. The sound of windscreen wipers squeeking against the windshield can also be heard. An oil stain positioned under the car, leads towards the oil pit.
In the room next door an old taperecord player is playing "novemberrain".
