This 1973 videotape, companion to Elke..., is quite a curious piece. The concept revolves around an actor visualizing himself sinking into the floor, leading to these haunting visuals of him sprawled out on the ground, both face up and face down. The pacing is oddly hypnotic, with the dissolves creating a dreamlike atmosphere that lingers long after the tape ends. It's not just about the images; it's about the mental exercise that the actor navigates, which adds a layer of intrigue. This kind of experimental work has a certain appeal, especially for collectors interested in the avant-garde and the progression of video art.
This tape has a limited release history, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. Copies tend to surface infrequently, primarily in niche auctions or specialized online forums, which adds to its allure. There's a growing interest in works like this as collectors seek to document the evolution of video art and performance pieces from this era.
