VIDEO INSTALLATION
January 2017
Fort Blauwkapel, Utrecht NL
“The meeting with oneself is, at first, the meeting with one´s own shadow. The shadow is a tight passage, a narrow door, whose constriction no one is spared who goes down to the deep well
”
This installation was developed as part of an spatial and aesthetic exploration related to the concept of the ´Shadow´archetype proposed by Carl Jung. After some visual experimentation with the collected material from my personal dream´s diary and the imagery collected from the city, I selected one of the dreams that reflects my perception of the ‘Shadow’ archetype concept and the visual material connected to it. This material was used in different try outs to generate a spatial experience. Different objects and compositions were explored to create a specific atmosphere that could show the merge of the image from the dream and the material collected from the city.
