Margit Koller
In the last few years I made doors and windows – by wood, or just projected them onto the wall or onto recycled windowframe or real windows. These installations are always the copy of real spaces, however they show a surreal reality's illusion in their temporality or spatiality to the public.
My purpose to create life-sized installations, in which the time and space are mixed in a tactile way – thereby diverge from our basic perception. Thereby I motivate the public to rethink their skills of perception, and open their mind to an abstract way of percieve time and space (the basic dimensions of our perception).
I trust in that, if we could rethink our perception, maybe we can still keep the control over the totally confused reality-dimensions of the information-labirynth of our new network-society.
