VAAKSAUORA - HORIZONTAL, 2011 6-CHANNEL PROJECTED HIGH DEFINITION INSTALLATION; 6 MIN; DOLBY DIGITAL 5.1 |
...“Horizontal,” a video installation presenting a tall spruce tree rotated 90 degrees, is almost Minimalist by contrast. Displayed by six vertical projections, each showing a section of the tree, it spreads more than 35 feet across one wall. With its wind-blown branches heaving and swaying and its trunk whipping up and down, it looks more animal than plant, as if were a great, arboreal whale. A beautiful complement to the comparatively complicated “The Annunciation,” it makes a compelling case for the proposition that the miraculous may be just a shift of perspective away.
