The performer sits on a 1.7 – 4 meter high metal chair and is wearing a long white dress made out of edible paper which hangs to the floor. A shower is installed over her head which drips incessantly. The water pours always stronger.  She is lit from a strong front-light. 
The water softens the dress until it dissolves in parts and falls piece by piece to the floor.
As exhibition piece from the original image, only the destroyed dress and the visible metal structure remains.

A video documentation runs parallel to the exhibition.
