IN THE SHADE OF AN OLIVE TREE
Interactive Video Installation, 2007
Digital video projection with sound
Dedicated to Nina Zakharovna Kunina
The interactive video installation uses the play of sunlight as a visual material.
The possibilities of light used in the installation "In the Shadow of the Olive" also reflect the logic of contrast, touch, "inverse". According to the theory of Vladimir Vasilievich Sterligov — "space penetrates into space".
Entering the circle of light the viewer is involved in the creation of the image — is transferred at the associative level in the world inspired by the proposed video and audio series.
The lacy shade of an olive tree, the rustle of leaves, the mosaic floor and the power of imagination will take you to Greece, where the reflections on the marble of the ancient sculpture play just as they do on your hand, caught in the beam of the projector.
