"Crema"

Performance and Videoinstallation: Presented at: Marking the territory, Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin 2001; Performance Night, Mediamatic Amsterdam 2004

         

Concept
The Artist (Nezaket Ekici) truns fluidly cream to butter. The arm takes over the function of a mixer, therefore of a machine. Continuous hitting brings the fluid dimensions to the fixed dimensions: butter.
In the permanent repetition of the activity of hitting appear different facial expressions and postures which are an expression of the continuous load by hitting. In the head of the viewer a multiplicity can appear therefore by association possibilities.
The work puts the question, to what extent the person can take over the function of a machine without losing the humanity.
