Fireworks, 2015-ongoing

digital video, loop

The video highlights the ironical transformation of the use of fireworks, which are normally associated with celebrations and an aesthetic experience. The fireworks in the video are no longer exploding in vertical direction but in horizontal direction and what is there to see is not the beauty of these explosions but protection shields that emerge instantaneously where these explosions take place.
