Video screening: Undefined fragmented observations
“For this project I have investigated and documented a place in the middle of Sweden where UFO observations took place during the sixties. The project developed to become a kind of search for something, in and through nature here on earth, seen both from a micro and a macro perspective. The end result is a video collage where fragmentary elements of observations in nature are combined with sounds from outer space.”
The seminar is a collaboration between Trøndelag Center for Contemporary Art and Trondheim Academy of Fine Art.
