Assimilate! is a movie-performance, filmed at night within
an 8-meter high, haphazardly constructed crystal-palace. A protagonist clothed in
wearable structures of sheet glass and mirrors, almost indiscernible from the
surrounding installation, is moving about it, - partially assimilating to the
point of near dissolution, then again breaking free, scaling, tearing,
breaking, all in dancelike motions.
The performance is adding its own sound-elements to
the especially composed soundtrack by Ele Runge. Stage-lighting creates an almost
abstract, black-and-white- atmosphere focusing on restriction, adaptation,
reflection, perspectives, and the complex layering of reality as well as the, -
possibly aggressive – aim at its deconstruction.
