Belgium 2013 / 17’

Photographs hang on the walls. The camera closes in on certain images, forcing us to think about them. In the typical museum experience, we can actually touchthe object presented, but in Journal this takes place directly through the medium of film, which limits our freedom of vision. Each of the participants (the film’s audience and the people in the photographs) of this unusual undertaking is seeing and being seen at the same time.
