Videoinstallation: Exi(s)tense (DE)

This video installation is composed by a series of video works by artist Henrike von Dewitz intended to interact with the festival’s music proposal for the place in which they are shown and the location itself. The work is made upon footage produced by the artist along many years and in many countries, footage which deals with hazardous or not expected encounters with natural phenomena in daily life contexts and places: animals, nature’s elements in action, the movement of organic life. The source material of video works acquired during the post-production stage an almost-abstract, almost-surreal, almost-geometrical appearance, which nevertheless never fails to refer to the original impression, the choreography staged by an octopus or a colony of insects, for instance, which triggered the composition.
