is a time installation. The piece of work illustrates the expected lifetime of a 30-year-old German woman. Regarding to the mortality table (published by the Federal Statistical Office, Germany) a 30-year-old woman will reach on average the age of 83,11 years (4 337 weeks/30 356 days). Therefore, every single page of the book reflects a week of lifetime. A crucial aspect of my work is the perception of time. The book demonstrates the fleetingness of days and weeks and visualizes the fragility of human existence. Time is alsoa physical quantity, measurable and objective, but the perception of it seems to be very subjective.
