«The video shows a street artist performing a bizarre dance with a life-size, neatly dressed doll in a subway passageway to loudspeaker music.

Attached to the dancer's feet, the lifeless female body follows his every move; a scene somewhere between involuntary comedy and brutal rape fantasy. This jet-black grotesque runs as a loop on a monitor mounted on a luggage trolley with two suitcases and a piece of plastic tarpaulin. The whole thing is situated in public space, in a kind of duplication of the original situation, the hat for collecting money lying ready.» (Sibylle Ryser)
