RABBIT HOLE
Rabbit Hole – leads us down into the dark depths of a fantastic and digital realm, through tunnels, intersections, aberrations, final fantasies, with no end in sight. It seduces through algorithmics, entering into an eerie backwards motion, getting lost in the depths of the internet, of the wonderland, where the impossible is possible and morals are cancelled. Have we long since arrived at a time where all of the rules have been turned upside down and simply can be overwritten, beguiled by bittersweet media strategies and ideological echo chambers? And the fleshy movements in particular are what appear so strangely different and simultaneously so familiar to us, which mutate from grotesque deconstructed scenes into a dance maelstrom and sweeps away everything that was. A language that unfolds its own personal beauty from the very first second.
