1999 
material:
fluorescent green gaffertape (2 inch),
polaroid, bar, palette
photographer:
Karin Desmarowitz

I experiment, sorting polaroid pictures of the local dogowners walking the dog and their pets. I create two rows of photographs – one facing east and one facing west. I ask the passersby: „Is there now any difference to be seen?“.
