The 2nd Festival of the Smallest (2022)
The smallest, the quietest, the least, the narrowest, the slowest, the lightest, the shortest and the thinnest. We show work, barely perceptible by eye or by ear, yet unmistakably present.

1 sec.#4
During walks I take hundreds of pictures, more or less random, but always with a shutter speed of 1/30 second. For the work “1 sec.#4″ I selected 30 photos of tree trunks and placed them in consecutive order in a video. This imaginary representation of time and place plays back at 30 frames per second, lasting exactly 1 second.
