Burning of Sodom
semester topic „Prometheus Erbe“Single-channel video installation, 16:9, 4'30'', color, sound, 2023
The biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah is used as the starting point for the film. In the film, there is a modification of the sins thematized in the story. Transferred to the present day, they appear more complex and abstract/subtle. The main sin in this film refers to one of the seven deadly sins of the Old Testament "acedia" (indifference). It is about man's inconsiderate behavior towards himself and his surroundings. Monumental cool spaces show the rational and profit-fixated society of Sodom.
