Bless You (2000), video and photography

I invited a number of persons to my studio. They were given a mission to, alone in a room, sneeze in front of a recording video camera. To sneeze is something trivial that everybody does, but at the same time a violent and dramatic reaction where we totally looses control. The video piece, Bless You, is a series of portraits of people under influence. We can follow the portrayers struggle in front of the camera; their agony, stamina and in some cases pride and happiness.
