"mackey versus gone with the wind"

Triptychon

C-print on VEL museum cardboard

In the superficially classical photographic works, the space becomes fluid through the invasion of the foreign images. Thus the interlacing of the spatial levels creates a simultaneity of highly non-simultaneous times. The seemingly static photography experiences its depth structure through the Dreamtime and thus becomes a film that creates a space that in turn seems static. Michel Foucault counts cinema among the heterotopic spaces, because it opens up the possibility of being present in spaces of different order at the same time: in the cinema and in the spaces of film. Klaus Pamminger plays with this confusion of levels by exponentiating heterotopia: La Belle du Jour stretches out on the artist's loft bed
