After the cycles "Satkula" (a small river in Lusatia) and "Schwarzwasser/Čornica" (black water), exhibitions in Cottbus and Bautzen, as well as the Sorbian-Carinthian-Slovenian art project "Přechod/Übergang/Prehod" (transition), the Carinthian artist Karl Vouk deals again with environmental destruction and loss of homeland in Lusatia. In his experimental video he works with pairs of opposites such as nature-industry, dead-living and not least image and sound, which – juxtaposed – counteract one another. A deliberately arranged disturbance – and it's no coincidence that it’s weasels that call out from a pond at Dissen about dead wastelands. GL
