Screen

Bookshop Projectspace, Skaftfell Center for Visual Art, Seydisfjördur, Iceland
December 2013 / January 2014

„During my first residency stay in Iceland in December 2008 I was quite impressed by the christmas lighting. Even graveyards were covered with colourful little lights. A poetic and sometimes also kitschy contrast to the darkness that time of the year.
Now five years later I try to take part in the icelandic tradition of illuminating the windows of the houses.“

Screen is a time- and site-specific installation using different kinds of light, crystals, objects and slowly rotating motors. It`s a combination of the pictorial Bookshop display window with the three dimensional space behind.
