Die Wüste wächst is an experimental video from 2013.

The Desert Grows is a poetic reconstruction of an area of houses in the German city Moenchengladbach. This houses were home to british soldiers and their families. Now they are abandoned. The video depicts the atmosphere of this place and combines it with choreographies of hand gestures coming from military and political contexts.
