Insurance % Investment

 
Installation Views: Lund KonstHall


Three video projections, three sound scapes, wallpaper of photographic prints

Insurance%Investment illustrates the mental arithmetic of investment and insurance, two mechanisms designed to administer, anticipate and forestall risk, speculation and the possibility of failure.

Whirling motorcyclists in a fairground ‘well of death', giant rotating fan blades, oxygen masks, empty rooms with ornate wall paper and a soundtrack that suggests the respiration of strange machines constitute a constellation of uncanny effects that poise the visitor in a space full of riveting ambivalences. The proliferation of cautionary motifs only emphasizes the latency of danger.

Everything is anticipated, yet anything is possible.
