TERRA INCOGNITA
4-channel video installation (2019)
4-channel video installation (2019)
Four videos sampling early sci-fi, archive footage and found material;
juxtaposing contradictory narratives in exploring space as a symbol for the
unknown and a projection screen for our fears, dreams and desires.
Using video montage techniques and a discourse analytic approach, the installation portrays romantic and erotic fantasies of the moon and the planets, the male explorer and hero, the stranger/alien as a violent threat, women as objects of desire, and nature as a platform for dominance, conquest and exploitation.
The videos are 7 min, 10 min, 13 min and 38 min, and shown together on loop.
