Episode 14 — Mise en abyme

15/02/2022 – 15/03/2022

The scattered negatives on the lightbox show bricks, eaves and conifers, a farmhouse, poplars and family pictures. Two kids in bathrobes and pyjamas on the carpet. His shoes appear in the lower right corner of negative 16. The grain of the film and the rough fibre of the jute carpet become indistinguishable.

De verspreide negatieven op de lichtbak tonen bakstenen, dakranden en coniferen, een boerderij, populieren en familiefoto’s. Twee kinderen in badjas en pyjama op het tapijt. Zijn schoenen verschijnen in de rechterbenedenhoek van negatief 16. De korrel van de film en de ruwe vezels van de juten mat zijn amper van elkaar te onderscheiden.

THE SITUATION AS IT IS:
A story that unfolds in episodes of three frames, rhythmically revolving on a new billboard mounted onto 019’s facade.
From Friday 16 October 2020 until mid 2022 permanently on view on the outside of 019.
