Wild Flowers

Wild Flowers
Duration: 3:32

The video describes a state of isolation in an undefined yet restricted environment, which is structured by the thoughts and habits of the individual himself. These events have been experienced but also lost in the eternity of time. The work, a stroll and the Spring that never arrived give place to the rage and nostalgia of a life lost in repetition and habit. The artwork itself is presented through moving graphics (3d animation) creating an almost theatrical space which consists of a timber floor and a table as elements of "real space" and the soil with wildflowers as an element of imagination and escape. The internal monologue of the person is portrayed through a series of mundane daily interactions. In the artwork, the use of reality is ambiguous, since we cannot define whether the piece is representing something that been experienced or something that has been lost.
