Maria Niro (USA) Glitch Telemetry, 2:37
Film & video programme „Measurements of time“
14/09/2010, Tuesday, 17:00 - 18:00, Studio 7, Art Academy
Childhood innocence and fantasy. Fascination with flight. Time and Technics. Genius, and progression, or so we think. A haunting, stark reality unfolds, ridden with double negatives. In this video, I juxtapose a number of unrelated images to create a visual anagram. The result is a pastiche of spectacles that sheds light upon man’s creation of technology for close observance of nature and space and his obsession with extending that technology to missiles used for war and mass destruction.
Maria Niro is an artist based in New York City working with photography, video and sound. Her current body of work explores the poetics of memory and dream while analyzing their connection to water, time, light, and space. She deconstructs the visual experience of moments to explore how the still and moving image both reveal and conceal identity and time. Her videos are set to original soundscapes I create with electro-acoustic sound, mashed up with field recordings, found sound, and my own voice manipulated with software instruments. Her work has been screened in the United States, the United Kingdom, and on European television.
