In the Performance the visitors see the artist standing on a black pedestal in the middle of the black room. In both hands she holds metal shells containing a lot of knifes (butterknifes). Her dress is made of transparent folie totally covered with butter. Her eyes are blindfolded with a black scarf. Besides the artist parts of breads of different sizes hanging from the ceiling like low hanging fruits, it looks like a living installation. The visitors are invited to see the artist how she holds this metalshells during the hole performance , trying to rise them as high as possible. Also the visitors are invited to take the bread and the knife in order to take butter from the dress on to the bread and eat it. In the process the visitors will see more and more the shape of the body of the artist. On the one hand the butter will melt down by the heat of artist body( max. 30 min.) and the other hand the butter will taken away by the visitors and visible whats behind.
