i walk through walls
video installation
from the exhibition series
I SPY with my little eye
2017/2018
The video installation i walk through walls is a fragment of a fictional factory that produces only sadness. This factory is not physical, but operates 24 hours a day and rarely rests. The mechanism is so reliable that the factory's existence seems to last forever.
Faced with the question of what a sadness factory looks like from the inside, the artist tries to give one possible answer through a moving visual accompanied by the song "How to disappear completely" (in slow motion). A sad visual moving from indoors to outdoors absorbs the viewer in its dark yet beautiful layers. Just like a sadness factory that is constantly producing and operating, taking in ever larger areas.
i walk through walls was displayed as a site-specific installation in two different exhibition spaces: Polymer A korpus (I Spy With My Little Eye) and EKA Gallery (I Spy With My Little Eye 2).
