On the night of August 12, 1983 Christian's father began a pursuit on the Zeeland-bridge from Schouwen-Duiveland to South Beveland. When passing the tollbooth he had lost the ambulance with his wife and unborn son. Like a pack of wolves hunting behind a sled, he drove his car between heaven and earth over the long bridge with the 52 pillars and caught up upon them meter by meter just before reaching Goes, where the doctors were waiting outside the hospital staring at the stars.

Christian was rushed from a campsite in Renesse to Goes where he was born two month's to early. Together with Onno Dirker he tells the perpetual story about his birth. In 4 actes (the expectation, the advent, circular movement, the return) they will pass through changes in time, in landscape, environment and mentality. The different narratives of Christian's father and mother form the basis of his memory. "All in all it's like a dream I have read in a book." "Was the color of the car red or black."

On a long strip (15 m) of paper they painted the Zeeland-bridge. This artwork is sold per cm. The installation includes a table, cutting-board, knife and wrapping-paper. The price is € 2, - per cm. The recommended length is 52 cm. (table: 50 cm x 120 cm)

Abstract of a dialogue in Act 4:
During the day Christian's father wandered around in the neighbourhoud, not knowing what to do. With his wife and child in the hospital, he feared the emptiness of the days. The surrounding roads of Wemeldinge resemble these feelings.
