While riding a train, the image of the landscape dissolves in movement. The artist photographs the route through the train window so that she can view it later. Before she presses the shutter button, she zooms in as close as the mobile phone camera allows. Zooming into the field of view pushes the edges of the pixels and blurs the original impulse to capture the image.
In the project I never return to the same place. Each time I trip over something else. (This usually means that one or more images do not belong to the set), it is torn between imitating a travelogue and scientific research. The artist inserts the collection of photographs into free computer programs for stitching together panoramas. She tests the ways in which she could create the effect of a holistic and continuous space and time from fragments of non-sequential images with unpredictable spacing. In this way, she records a territory, a journey, or simply distances.
Lucija Klauž (1999) is an artist and critic. In her work, she explores the recording and representation of time and space through the documentation of her surroundings with repeated procedures. She has participated in several group exhibitions in Slovenia and abroad, including a residency in Tunis as part of the Light Art Project Interference, at the Triennial of Young Artists at the Center for Contemporary Arts Celje, at the Lighting Guerilla festival, in DobraVaga and in Cirkulacija2.
