| art.relation.publishedIn | Skulpturlandsby Selde / Sculpture City Selde, 2017. Sculpture City Selde is a platform for art in public space. In 2017 the focus is video art and ten invited international artist engaged with the people of Selde as the subject and material for their video productions. The project aims to explore and experiment with the possibilities of video art. In 2016-2017 the artists visited the city to commence their site specific research and preparatory work, in fall 2017 the works are exhibited in Selde’s public areas. | sv |
| art.description.project | Weather phenomenology & Video Historics is a video based work, installed in the public outdoor space of the small town of Selde in Denmark, September – December 2017, consisting of two elements: A video sculpture and publication.
Description: In a landscaped garden light is reflected in a water-filled never completely established swimming pool, that makes the site read as a Terrain Vague. The reflecting water in the pool is the outset for the video sculpture Weather phenomenology & Video Historics, which manifest as a human seized LED screen with a clamped on 2m high one-way mirror. On the LED screen runs an 18 m video-loop, assembled by 8mm film footage and digital green screen keyed layers.
Formally, the video-montage is an aesthetic and atmospheric assembly of images that create something that resembles a digital representation of nature and light. The video melts together with its surroundings and the past meets the present, in a self-reflexive multi-media shape (due to the mirror). Here the video is exposed as a mediating factor, while the water and the wind simultaneously animate the surrounding nature over the course of the changing fall.
Semantically, the video plays with symbolic references to the Danish female artist Emilie Demant Hatt (1873-1958) born in the small town of Selde. My relation to Emilie Demant Hatt however, goes via the Sami territories of Sweden and the Arctic. In extensive periods of Emilie Demant Hatt’s life she travelled around in Northern Sweden among the Sami and performed a kind of field activism that manifested itself in her artistic work. Most of this is found today in the Museum Sallings collection (close to Selde in DK) and at the Nordic Museum in Stockholm. In Weather phenomenology & Video Historics I am investigating Emilie Demant Hatt's call to North Sweden in relation to my own occupation with landscapes of narratives and raw materials in High Arctic terrains. What is the relationship between female painting practices at the beginning of the last century and artistic research today? | sv |
