Mouth Piece

Description

"In the work Mouth Piece, Rainer is observing himself on a monitor that is standing underneath the camera. He studies his mouth as it moves, feels his face with his fingers and looks at himself with a moving lack of inhibition. He does not speak , but his mouth certainly attains a direct form of communication." (Source, website, LIMA).
