The Funfair Accidents

A poetic tragedy about commodification, commercialization and the relationship between illusion and reality.

Projections is a series of digitilized slideshows, relating mainly fictitious stories through image and text. Borrowing the authoritative aura of the boardroom presentation the works are produced in Keynote, thus limiting their visual expression to what the program allows.

The images are sampled from various internet sources, rearranged into newly constructed contexts, mimicking the way we percieve the world around us by combining different fragments of information.
