Ieke Trinks: act 1 (2007)

The performance takes place during a party.  The performer is dressed somewhat clown-like and is a member of the audience.  The performer sits, walks around, makes small-talk, observes, drinks, attempts to snatch peanuts and smokes.  Afterwards a report of the performer’s experience has been made.  This report, combined with pictures of the particular evening and a discreet male voice-over, are put together into a video.

Cornelius Gijsbrechts: Trompe l’oeil (1670)

Cornelius Norbertus Gijsbrechts:
Trompe l’oeil. The Reverse of a Framed Painting
(c. 1610 – after 1675)

With the absence of the frame that traditionally serves as the architectural transition between the spectator’s reality and the picture’s painted universe, this work by the Flemish painter Gijsbrechts is moving beyond the usual realms of art and into the illusionistic domains of the stage…

Self-timer Photographs, Where I Had Ten Seconds to Hide Myself in the Picture
‘In this project I challenged myself. I set the self-timer on 10 sec and during that time I had to hide somewhere in the photographed scene. Then I discarded all the pictures in which there were clues of my presence. Hiding places are chosen to be more and more difficult so the photographing act becomes physically demanding. I use this narration for sequencing the chosen pictures’.

Britt Hatzius: Blind Cinema

blindc_2015
In the darkness of a cinema space, the audience sits blindfolded. Behind each row of audience members is a row of children who in hushed voices describe a film only they can see. Accompanied by the soundtrack (which has no dialogue), the whispered descriptions are a fragile, fragmentary and at times struggling but courageous attempt by the children to make sense of what they see projected on the screen.
