Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

In an AMVK-installation I was laying naked on a rotating platform, naked with my legs spread, my feet tied to a branch. By shuffling over the platform it looked as if I was moving forward, but yet remaining on the same spot. On the background a film of the same performance in a wood was projected.
