Turn/Return

SAMSUNG DIGITAL CAMERA

Videoinstallation, Video-Loop, Beamer, double mirror connected with electric motor, DVD-player, stereo, 2012

The installation was realized in the frame of the „Occupy Circle, Part II“ show in my studio – a collaboration with Dominik Eggermann. Common starting point of the works that are united in the installation is movement and so The Time.
Dominik Eggermanns works are based on the programming of Java-Apps. They were presented on 3 screens, the sound on headphones. The visual and acoustic sensation is created by an itterative algorithmical parameter that initiates an aleatoric process.
The videoinstallation „Turn/Return“ shows a person, that is artistically – metaphorically going through various states of being. At the same time the person is caught in a movement that is spinning around itself while spinning around in space, creating a vision of vainness, the turn of the „Big Wheel“ that creates everything and means nothing.
Both works are endless processes: On the one hand side an emanation of form, on the other side an experience of life caught in a loop.
