In 2001 the artist Klaus Schrefler
[KaRaSu] was asked to contribute to an ARGUS event, Dom im Berg in Graz,
Austria dedicated to sexually abused children and youth since his work
has dealt with different forms of violence for many years. He created
an eleven minute double screen video (including the intense sounds of
Rudl Vogtenhuber´s Filter) with the intention of simultaneously
showing two perspectives in which the viewer could identify with, that
of the perpetrator or of the victim. While the piece contains no graphic
actions, it takes the audience through a natural progression of events
leading to the repitious rhythm of abuse. The loop reverses to emphasize
the reflection of the present in relationship to the past symbolizing
the continual cycle of violence as the precondition for the excuse of
perpetration.
