For a few years now, I have been taking notes of people who strike me or impress me. From a few names a list has been created, with people whose careers seem to evoke a certain fascination in me: almost all of the individuals collected have an abnormal, sometimes contradictory curriculum vitae, which is steeply approaching a turning point and often ends in remarkable circumstances. In this context I repeatedly came across the term escapism.

This book is my attempt to interpret the concept of *escapism* and to back it up with my observations.

The LED panel was used to break my non static interpretation of the term and to animate the statement i did.

My finals took place in the gallery *Feiertag*, Kassel. The book was launched on July 17, 2019.
