The Loss of Small Details
Solo exhibition, 2019
Kunsthalle Turku, Finland
The starting point for the exhibition The Loss of Small Details was a 3D-scanning process carried out in a 100-year-old house. I began scanning my relative’s old sumer home somewhat spontaneously, and the results were far from perfect. The rooms and objects appeared only in fragments, and the 3D models were riddled with gaps.
Despite this—or perhaps because of it—I found the incomplete scans to be an ideal foundation for my work. I felt no urge to correct their imperfections. The glitches and omissions produced by new technologies become a metaphor for the fragility and impermanence of life and memory itself.
