FALSE WITNESS / KW INSTITUTE FOR CONTEMPORARY ART, 3RD BERLIN BIENNALE 2004

This installation is a spatial translation of the False Witness.
Three consecutive corridors create a 12m x 90 cm constructed space.
The entire book is printed in 3 stripes respectively to the each corridor.
Due to the narrowness of the moving area, the viewer is not allowed to scan images in one gaze.
By entering in the space he/she enters physically in the book and has to traverse the whole space in order to finish it.
