This installation composed
of three works is based on how we are influenced by words and images. While the
paper work Serendipity & Kairos undoubtedly focuses on form and literary
dimension, the triptych photograph entitled - Windfall ! and the video entitled
Last Call underline certain textual and editorial codes originating from cinema
aesthetics. The word “- Windfall !” on the photograph appearing as a movie’s
subtitles has an open ended fictional characteristic. The video, on the other
hand, includes 8 movie intros. The flow of the video footage and the fictional
names I prepared during editing transform the video into a surreal, an
ironically never starting, fictional movie. In spite of the different dynamics
they carry, these three works share the common ground of fictional open
endedness and fantasy dimension.
