A\u00a0jump-cut to an eternal combat between two lovers, a metre of the limits of ambition, a tribute to the\u00a0absurdly liminal tenacity of competition.\u00a0Across the 480 minutes of the video\u2019s duration, the light shifts with the passing of time, from clear\u00a0Autumn daylight to the fluorescent lights of a gymnasium once darkness falls. Dressed in medieval\u00a0knight meets basketball kit, with athletic mesh replacing chain mail, the two opponents perform a\u00a0cycling and endless loop of 3 simple stage combat choreographies.\u00a0Across the 8 hours they never, ever leave the frame. Every 30 minutes a break is signalled by the\u00a0first 10 seconds of &#8216;I&#8217;ve Got The Power&#8217; by Snap playing out across the gymnasium PA. At hour 5, burgers arrive to be devoured. As the light changes, so do their levels of fatigue, of combatproficiency, and determination. Dominance and submission switch back and forth.\u00a0No winner, no loser, no fixed narrative, only love as a practice of endurance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Performed by Melanie Jame Wolf &amp; The Lover<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Director of Photography: Sam Smith<\/p>\n<p>OPEN WINDOW is a series of presentations by the artists-in-residence at K\u00fcnstlerhaus Bethanien,\u00a0who currently don\u2019t have the chance to show their work in the usual Open Studios and exhibitions.\u00a0Their works can be seen from 4 pm to 12 am at the window front, Kottbusser Str 10 each day.
