A hula-hooper spins glowing hoops around her body. Like a micro solar system the hoops orbit rhythmically around her axis. Separated form its usual setting in front of an audience, the action is isolated in time and space, the camera being a sole witness. Although sound is omitted, the swooshes of the hoops spinning in high velocity around a body, can almost be heard through the visual impact of the flashing pulses of light. The constant effort of keeping the wheels in motion holds the possibility of failure and can be seen to reflect on the human condition.

Performer: Silvia Pavone.
Camera: Sebastian Sharples.
