Cinema IV
Marjatta Oja
Cinema IV consists of projections, videos, objects and a sheer curtain. The works in the Cinema series seek to dismantle the linear continuum of the film. Different autobiographical structures and video documents are placed in a film theater -like space, separated with a transparent curtain.
