I shot this video in 2013, in my hometown, Amsterdam, walking slowly along lots of people who were queuing to get into the then just opened Abercrombie & Fitch store, which was a big hit at the time. I only filmed the legs and mirrored the video both horizontally and vertically to create a kaleidoscopic view of the blue, black and grey jeans, the sneakers and the brown leather shoes in between which every now and then bright colors are popping up.
*) The One Minutes Collection consists of over 15,000 video works by artists from more than 120 countries and is preserved by The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. You can search the collection online.
