Say Goodbye to Olafur Eliasson
2010 | Extended photography
The image is determined by the distance of the photographer and by the focal distance. In the close-up and using a wide focus the window cross disappears, rendering the illusion of a misty landscape. Contours are only produced by gaining distance to the image. This work is a personal reminiscence of and homage to the work Your black horizon, by Olafur Eliasson, Venice Biennale 2005.
„A temporary pavilion was constructed on the grounds of the monastery to house the exhibit, consisting of a square room painted black with one source of illumination – a thin, continuous line of light set into all four walls of the room at the viewers eye-level, serving as a horizontal division between above and below.“
