shift II

video installation with sound, MIAT Museum about industry, labour and textile, Ghent
31 Jan – 04 Feb 2018

Mader Wiermann
sound by Thomas A. Troge
commissioned by Lichtfestival Ghent

“Shift2” oscillates between different levels of reality. The facade of the MIAT is – as a kind of fabric – detached from the real surface of the building, is processed in a “absurd digital factory”, becomes part of a stage setting and finally returns to the building.
Carefully and emotionally simple gripping devices mediate between historical significance, architectural conditions and absurd imaginary spaces.

rear projection foil, 12 synchronized video projektors/ HD players, sound, 7min. loop
