Interval

Interval explores the space in the middle of a conversation. The process begins simply by collecting conversations between artists during their photo walk. During the editorial process, fragments of images and recorded dialogues are assembled and arranged in the form of a contact sheet. The installation presents this contact sheet—digitally printed on transparent chiffon fabric—with the dialogues projected as video onto the fabric. The piece examines the interval between text and text, image and image, and text and image, which, despite their coexistence, cannot be viewed in the same space-time. This particular form of presentation, in itself, leaves enough room for spectators to encounter the space between visual and textual language as they become the space-in-between the conversation themselves. In this sense, although spectators might not figuratively be in the same place nor at the same time, they might have already taken part in the conversation they are about to encounter.
