Janne Ahola – Counterparts (2017)
Loacation: WeeGee's lobby. Available to see free of charge.
Driven by our responsibilities and pleasure, nowadays we spend a remarkable amount of time on the web, sometimes so much that it becomes difficult to draw a straight line between the two. Counterparts aims to disclose how vanishing is the line between virtual and physical worlds. Bridge through these two realities is made possible by the playful variation of projected shadows and highlights.
Video projection.
