Shortcut
Foto door Marc Knip
In Shortcut I combine footage from Bierum, Groningen with images from Djerba, Tunesia.
Walking with a blue suitcase through the wet sand of the river Ems, a figure is on its way to an unknow destination. This performative intervention in Bierum, in the cold and wet spring months in The Netherlands is in contrast with the hot and dry environment of Tunesia.
However, the salt water of the rivers, the sea and the seeming infinity connects both places and the footage comes together in a film and installation without beginning or end.
Images from the exhibition Shortcut, 2024, different videoinstallations.
