Ars moriendi

My video work Ars Moriendi from 1974 came to my mind during a night with a strong storm charged with electricity. Electric discharges and continuous thunder, flashes of lightning in the short term. In the video performance, the electric wire in which I was wrapped was connected to a button that I held in my fist, thus causing the light to turn on and off.
