Evelin Stermitz - Rose is a Rose (0:03:53)
Production: 2008
This performative video work shows a woman engaged in covering her face with rose leaves. As a metaphor for the above and beyond term "beauty", the fragility of beauty and the canons of beauty, the video reveals an obscure image of woman, which is also shaped by transiency and impermanence. Excerpts from the poem "Sacred Emily" by Gertrude Stein, in which she created the sentence "Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose.", form the sound collage to the video work.
