Fade Away

Description

In this work, the actress Lisa Vicari is shown in her role as “Martha Nielsen” (later also “Eva”) from the Netflix series Dark. The series is about an eternal cycle in different parallel worlds, which can and must only be stopped in one way so that the events never come about as they do in the story. The point is that the past, the present and the future are linked and dependent on one another and that there is no real chronological order. The beginning is the end and the end is the beginning.

It’s also about the love story between Martha Nielsen (Eva) and Jonas Kahnwald (Adam). This work is about one of the final scenes in which Martha and Jonas were finally able to untie the knot, knowing that this would undo their existence. They stand together in the original world, hold their hands, look at each other sensually and dissolve. – They fade away.
