Digital Installation
2007
2 computers, electronics, 2 monitors Ø ± 60 cm, wood, sound.
Two pedestals, a few
feet apart and about 1,15 m. high, carry a large monitor. They show
a two-part still life of a long sideboard.
The left one is an arrangement with a fruit dish, a vase with a few
dead roses and a photo of
the same sideboard, but in a different era and a different location.
On the right side monitor is a tray with bottles of exquisite
liquors, some glasses, an ashtray with a cigar and a glass of brandy.
On the wall is a small photo with a group of people, one of them being
the
artist as a young man.
In reaction of specific movements of the viewer suddenly the table-lamp,
that was visible in one of the screens, starts to move through the image
to the other monitor. It stays there until some action of the viewer
makes it move back to the first one.
