REFRACT<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

5\u00b435\u00b4<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Refract cuestiona nuestra percepci\u00f3n y c\u00f3mo el conocimiento cient\u00edfico ha generado una conciencia global sobre nuestra fr\u00e1gil existencia. La imagen abstracta del cosmos es interrumpida por destellos de la situaci\u00f3n en la que se film\u00f3, oscilando entre nuestro punto de vista singular en la tierra y el conocimiento de la magnitud del cosmos. Nuestra percepci\u00f3n abarca el universo y sin embargo nuestros cuerpos y sentidos est\u00e1n firmemente arraigados en el paisaje circundante. Refract, con su imaginario hipn\u00f3tico, explora esta dicotom\u00eda entre nuestro deseo de inmortalidad y la inevitable desaparici\u00f3n del universo. El sonido se ha tomado de una recreaci\u00f3n sonora del Big Bang y lleva al espectador en las profundidades del universo.<\/span><\/p>\n

STATEMENT<\/span><\/p>\n

El foco central de mi pr\u00e1ctica es nuestra relaci\u00f3n con el medio ambiente y la interconexi\u00f3n entre el paisaje siempre cambiante y nuestra propia mortalidad. Uso la imagen en movimiento para centrar la atenci\u00f3n en los continuos movimientos y cambios, a menudo ocultos, que ocurren alrededor de nosotros (paisaje) y dentro de nosotros (cuerpo), abstray\u00e9ndolos de su entorno. La c\u00e1mara se utiliza como una caja m\u00e1gica que excluye la informaci\u00f3n sobre el tiempo, el lugar, la escala y a la vez conserva la autenticidad de la imagen en la realidad. La ambig\u00fcedad y la incertidumbre dentro de la imagen desaf\u00edan nuestra percepci\u00f3n y cuestionan la relaci\u00f3n con nuestro entorno para volver a conectarnos con un mundo en proceso de cambio.<\/span><\/td>\n

Refract questions our perception and how scientific knowledge has raised a global consciousness of our fragile existence. The abstract image of the cosmos is interrupted by glimpses of the situation in which it is filmed, oscillating between our singular standpoint on earth and our knowledge of the magnitude of the cosmos. Our perception encompasses the distant universe yet our bodies and senses are firmly rooted in our surrounding landscape. Refract’s hypnotic imagery explores this dichotomy between our desire for immortality and the universe’s inevitable demise. The sound is taken from an audio visualization of the big bang, bringing the viewer into the depths of the universe.<\/span><\/p>\n

STATEMENT<\/span>
\nCentral to my practice is our relationship to our environment and the interconnection between the ever-changing landscape and our own mortality. I use the moving image to focus attention on the, often hidden, continual movements and changes occurring around us (the landscape) and inside us (our body) by abstracting them from their surroundings. The camera is used as a magician\u2019s box excluding information about time, place, scale, while retaining the image\u2019s authenticity in reality. Ambiguity and uncertainly within the image challenges our perception and questions our relationship with our environment to reconnect us with a world in flux.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
