BIRDS
Jesper Alvaer's videos in a compilation from 1999-2004 make up a compact unit following alike motifs and themes. The short films show everyday reality which the author designs or just simply records. They are related by matching the camera eye, a game in which a simple slit through the objective creates a new autonomous event.
The 35m2 gallery presents two monumental works, two different environments. Both spaces are based on the same material context, the same material language. Yet each of these realizations appeals to different senses using different techniques and materials. These new spatial configurations, structures, and installations, which shape our spatial orientation and navigation through space, primarily appeal to our basic senses, our sensory memory, and our individual/private memory.
