REMEMBER/IMAGINE a collaboration with Studio Harris Blondman

Check out the new project, completed in Collaboration with Studio Harris Blondman (Joris Landman and Harry Bloch)

SEEING EXHIBITION: Science Gallery DUBLIN

There is not one horizon, not one point to help the viewer to complete the image. There are 9 different perspectives instead. 

”This establishes a new visual normality—a new subjectivity safely folded into surveillance technology and screen-based distraction. One might conclude that this is in fact a radicalization—though not an overcoming—of the paradigm of linear perspective. In it, the former distinction between object and subject is exacerbated and turned into the one-way gaze of superiors onto inferiors, a looking down from high to low. Additionally, the displacement of perspective creates a disembodied and remote-controlled gaze, outsourced to machines and other objects. Gazes already became decisively mobile and mechanized with the invention of photography, but new technologies have enabled the detached observant gaze to become ever more inclusive and all-knowing to the point of becoming massively intrusive—as militaristic as it is pornographic, as intense as extensive, both micro- and macroscopic.”

Take something out of context and it becomes hilarious. The simplest thing that we take for granted seen through someone else’s point of view can become magical, absurd, useless or even of ridiculed.

Consuming Images @vanabbemuseum . Photos of my screen mutation project and people consuming the image of a cake!

In how many ways can an object be represented? What if all of those are put together? Where do they overlap?

This is an expert from my Webcam studies for an upcoming project. We are all images dispersed around the globe. If you have a security camera and it is not passward protected the footage is broadcasted for anyone to watch online! :O Webcam footage found on insecam.org

Screen Mutations project

Tonight @vanabbemuseum come join the party and get to eat the image of a cake
