Phantom Ride
Phantom Ride senses the boundaries of the landscape-image. With a simple rearranging algorithm, the image production-chain (camera-computer-screen) stops with representing and starts presenting a new reality. By applying a perspective change not with the camera but in the data-file itself a new sensibility to the awareness of space, shape and motion in the landscape-image develops itself. A still image becomes animated (picture, slide show, motion picture) and starts a game with the recognizable and the absolutely alien.
The work is presented upon a screen of 2 meters high and 6 meters wide which leans against the wall. Because of this, the image not only gets a monumental nature but it can also relate itself with the space it's presented in. The screen gives weight to the image. Because the frame, just as the onlooker is standing on the floor, the two can come closer together and so this alien world becomes accessible.
