PRAYER WHEEL

Film loop running in illuminated display case
length 35.4" ( 900 mm )

A conveyor belt transports demonstrators beneath the articles of the UN Declaration
of Human Rights. Although the text repeats again and again, the speed of the film only allows scraps of sentences to be grasped. A prayer wheel as a permanent, photo-mechanical mini demonstration of human rights, the wording of which almost nobody knows, and which is respected by only a very few.
