ZeitGeist is een essayistische verkenning van de relatie tussen landschap en menselijke emoties. Geïnspireerd door de kunststroming Psychogeografie weerspiegelt de film mijn eigen soms melancholische en plots wisselende gedachtereeksen en dwaalstromen tijdens een reis door werelden en ontmoetingen.

De fysieke installatie: een 6 bij 2 meter breed projectiescherm, fysieke audio en de beelden geschoten vanuit universeel of persoons perspectief maakt de kijker de verkenner van het narratief.

'ZeitGeist' as experienced in physical space

Artist statement

As an artist who specializes in projection art and experimental film, I am deeply fascinated and influenced by themes such as nature and spirituality, in connection to the spaces I work and exhibit in. Through my films and preferably with the use of sensors, I seek to create a playful, transformative dialogue between the viewer, their own mental space, the physical space and the imagery that is now shown within it. Drawing from my background in animation and visual effects, I like to incorporate surrealist imagery to create dreamlike and otherworldly atmospheres that invite the viewer to place themselves in the narrative, and challenge their perceptions of reality. The goal is to use film as a medium to explore the intersection between the physical and the spiritual, inviting the viewer to contemplate their own relationship with the world around them.

Ambitions

In five years I hope to still be doing weird side projects, I like them the most. I hope I work on projects that have some importance, and give people a sense of wonder, that's where I feel projection art's power lies.
