Cheryl Studer filmed at Bayerische Staatsoper München, performing in the operetta Die Fledermaus by Johan Strauss.
Amongst the sopranos Eddy Seesing investigated posture, pose and clothing as characterizations of professional profile. During the photo rehearsal each soprano is followed closely with a video camera, trying to isolate them. From these video recordings a fragment of each soprano is selected varying in length between 30 seconds and one minute. Seesing concentrated on the focal point of the drama, the soprano's: Expression, Mimicry, Facial distortions during vocal climaxes, Postures and Gesticulation.
To emphasize these elements slow motion is used - 10 times slower than the normal speed. The short pieces thus created are constantly repeated in a loop. Six video's are simultaneously projected onto the exhibition space's walls, one per soprano.
A sound fragment of every soprano each with a maximum duration of 3 minutes is played in the installation separate from the video images.
