Moving I and II

Gun Holmström

‘Moving I and II’ is an installation with two short video loops. In the first film a young girl stands outside, a row of trees behind her and the occasional car driving by. Houses from different areas of Helsinki are imposed over her face, but the image shakes, it is fragile. The second film shows an empty room being filled with furniture, the process is then reversed and the room is empty again.
