3 laser sensors running across the Chapels floor start the installation once being interrupted by visitors. Fog is blown into the room, a battery of pink spots enlightens the 3D painted fake dome on the ceiling, slowly a subtle pink column created by the fog movements appears connecting the ancient floor with the ceiling. At the peak of density a powerful ventilator in place of one of the windows sucks the fog outside into the city space surrounding the museum. After about 5 minutes the atmosphere inside the chapel is cleared and only the 3 laser sensors remain in function, ready for the next performance.

Many thanks to Christine Wetzlinger-Grundnig, Nora Leitgeb, Markus Domainko, Ernst Taubinger and Ferdinand Neumüller.
