On Your Blind Passenger

“For me Voodling is tied to our ‘now’, to the moment between one second and the next. It constitutes a potential that is actualised and transformed into reality; an opening where concepts such as subject and object, inside and outside, proximity and distance are thrown up in the air only to be defined anew. Our sense of orientation is challenged, and the coordinates of our spaces, collective and personal, have to be renegotiated. Mutability and motion lie at the core of Voodling.”

Paraphrasing and taking a walk through OE's elongated, institutionalised Utopia, Sam Renseiw gets (almost) lost in coloured brume.

On voodling poetics of waste

" The centerpiece of B’s exhibition at C is a new architectural installation created especially for Copenhagen. The installation takes the form of a giant pissoir which drains directly onto the gallery floor, and which visitors are invited to enter and use. The pissoir, like many of B’s works, evokes the monumental neoclassicism that is a recurring strand in Western art and architecture. B’s installation satirizes this tradition, but also suggests a more serious point: how power attempts to use architecture to direct behavior – and to define what it means to be a citizen – even down to the codification of pissing."

On a short visit to the local art temple, Sam Renseiw fulfills his art-appreciation duties accordingly to the artist's wishes.

On re-mapping(s) in memory voodles

" We ought, then, to set up images of a kind that can adhere longest in memory. And we shall do so if we establish similitudes as striking as possible; if we set up images that are not many or vague but active; if we assign to them exceptional beauty or singular ugliness; if we ornament some of them, as with repetitive black painted stripes on the floor, so that the similitude may be more distinct to us; or if we somehow disfigure them, as by introducing one stained with blood or soiled with mud and smeared with red paint, so that its form is more striking, or by assigning certain comic effects to our voodles, for that, too, will ensure our remembering them more readily "

Affected, once again, by the task of facilitating a certain order in produced material(s), Sam Renseiw attempts to visualize the striped outlays for (arte)facts with some in-depth probes of adjacent spaces.

On voodling deja-vu preambulations

“ A situation is always comic if it participates simultaneously in two series of events which are absolutely independent of each other, and if it can be interpreted in two quite different meanings […] When we make the cerebral state the beginning of an action, and in no sense the condition of a perception, we place the perceived images of things outside the image of our body, and thus replace perception within the things themselves.”

As if experiencing a deja-vu, Sam Renseiw wanders through corridors, entering new chambers and other spaces reminiscent of more influential and original ones View the almost complete perambulation through the hotel by clicking here or on the links above.(patafilm # 830, 09'27''152MB(!), Quicktime/mov - other versions at Bliptv)
