Two persons sitting on the beach discussing, you are not able to hear what they are talking about. We make up a conversation in our imagination. Maybe the discussion we imagine matches reality, maybe not. It's about this random reaction between pictures, the scenes we see and sense we give to it.
Petra Lindholm 's video is located in a flat. Nobody is at home. The images are still and harmonically composed, the foundation being in the study of light and colour usually connected with painting and photography. Petra Lindholm has also composed the soundtrack, which constructs various emotional layers together with the images. The video is accompanied by a series of photographs.
For the duration of the exhibition a table top matching the gallery dimensions was installed into the gallery. Inset into this surface was a slotcar racetrack made by Tyco, a lap counter and two speed regulators for each racing car.
"Imagine this room is your studio. There is a mega exhibition coming up, and you are invited! The curator wants you to create a new work. Something great, extraordinary, extreme. There is a lot depending on this show and it's not much time left. He'll step by and you have to present your idea. Play/explain it in front of him, without giving him a paper, cause he doesn't like that.
Today is the day: You meet your friends, you'll find something."
