The backdrop consists of an alpine scenery photograph. Blurred, fading, and cheesily exaggerated, as known from old re-colored postcards. The foggy morning mood evokes nostalgic feelings and childhood memories: An enchanted forest. Fairy tales. Magic. Mystery. Besides, a sense of uncertainty. It is deceptive harmony. A crucifix, placed on a meadow. Spotlighted, but lonely and lost at the same time. On top of this scenario: A colored cloud exploding, splashes of paint, dripping and dropping right in front of the viewer. Glitchy magenta dirt, pink acid rain, bloody indigo fallout. Flushing away all illusory comfort... What could be more perverted than the reality we created? The human dilemma can only be solved on a higher level.
