The video work "Hunters and Collectors", consists of various material deriving from different sources.
For the video installation I interviewed a large number of members of a so called 'Gamers Club'. Four of them are selected and their voices are included in the piece. Accompaning the voice overs is footage of a young woman running and training to reach a private ultimate goal. She represents the real physical conterpart to Lara. Drawings of the heroine Lara Croft by different age groups were collected through the internet and are a second part of the installation."
