Missed Connections

 
 
Where does the gaze come from?

In an echo of silent conversations between three generations of image makers — Anna Hoffman Uddgren (1868-1947), Marta Berglund (1893-1973), and Florence Montmare, Missed Connections explores notions of time transparency as a biographical and geographical journey linking personal and collective histories. Through a camera obscura, the train becomes an "eye in motion" that observes the present, soon to be the past. In two adjacent train cars, the work explores time transparency and synchronicity.

A collaboration with Angelica Blomhage, Gotland Museum/Konstmuseum, and Birthe Jorgensen, Gotland Konstfrämjandet/Gotland Trains, Sweden.
