Impressions

The analog installation addresses questions regarding justice and reality. The film incorporates motifs from various folklores such as ‘Little Red Riding Hood’, ‘Vasilisa the Beautiful,’ and ‘Onryō.’ The central theme in each case revolves around dealing with sexual violence and the quest for justice. These mythologies are intertwined with archetypal symbols embodying knowledge, truth, and prosperity. The artwork becomes a medium for communicating implicit and inherited knowledge, while leaving room for new interpretations. The analog film material is part of the feature film EYES WITHOUT GAZE, depicting a part of the dreams of its protagonist.
