`slideshow 54” no. 2011-04-29 ́ . exhibition view at Konstfack 2011

54 min loop, 40 objects, always in progress
54 min loop, 40 objects, always in progress
The sound-slideshow-installation plays with the curiosity of the spectator and demands/asks a lot of patience.
The taken photograph of the collected object has the duration of the underlaying soundtrack which is only hearable with the headphones. So it becomes a choice to participate or not and triggers also the curiousity of the spectator who sometimes has to wait in order to hear the sound. There is no narration in the slideshow itself, so the spectator is free to stay and listen as long as he wants to.
Referring to the attention that I payed to the objects and the value I award them, I would like to activate a recognition of these interests in the common object and give the spectator the chance to rethink his observation and perception of his surrounding.
