Description of action I am wearing two suits one upon the other. A dark one and over this a bright one. I am standing in front of the audience and look into the eyes of each visitor. I dress up the white suit and lay it down on the floor. The garments on the floor looks like my shadow. I make some easy movements and adjust the bright suit to my movements. I kneel down on the bright suit and put my knees on the upper arms of the suit jacket. With both hands I take a big cobblestone and beat it full tilt on the place where the head of the invisible figure in the bright suit seems to be. After a couple of powerfull beats I stand up and leave the room, while I strew sumless of white flowers on the floor and mark my way out.
