Synopsis

‘Silence lay steadily against the wood and stone’ is an uncanny composition of familiar settings; transporting you from dusty attics to ornate wedding venues and beyond. By animating vacant spaces, Hjermind turns backgrounds into main characters. The video questions how architectural structures can have personalities and how interiors might demand a certain behaviour. It brings to mind both surveillance footage and landscape paintings. The viewer is invited to linger in liminal space, while experiencing the hierarchy between spectator, space and screen slowly dissolving. Who is watching whom?
