PARALLEL PORTRAIT
3-channel video installation, 14’30, HDV, colour, stereo,2010

Space, time and their coordination have lost their verisimilitude. The carefully composed, almost surreal cosmos depicts three people in varying space and time continuums connected by both imagination and soundtrack. The basic and deliberately calculated premise of the work is to create a sense of atmospheric wooziness, and an undefined atmosphere. The sentences, written by the artist, highlight the fine line between the deliberateness of the imagery and the irreality of the set. Our perception, based on normality and linear trajectories, is shattered, and it is through this process that we experience what German philosopher Martin Buber described as the between; that is, that which becomes significant in order to connect objects and to link spaces to situations, and situations to topics.
