(Entlastungen) Pipilotti's Fehler / (Absolutions) Pipilotti's mistakes, 1995

Still from the work (Entlastungen) Pipilotti's Fehler, produced in collaboration with Pipilotti Rist for the occasion of her exhibition at AKINCI in 1996. (Entlastungen) Pipilotti's Fehler. 1988. Video. 11:10 min This video is a nightmare repeated over and over again. The female protagonist struggles against physical and psychological impediments and keeps losing. She faints repeatedly, fails to climb over a fence, and tries to get out of a swimming pool but has her head forced under water every time she breaks the surface. Pipilotti Rist here performs absolutions for her faults, as the title tells us. The video itself is far from perfect: the image is distorted, highly pixelated and full of static. Moreover, the actions are never shown completely.
