My Personal Hitchcock

Storyboards summarise a complete film in just a few images. A sequence of apparently loose images is transformed with the fantasy and ideas of the viewer into action. In her work `My Personal Hitchcock’, Katja Stuke combines still images from several films by Alfred Hitchcock into a new, personal storyboard. By taking film images out of their original context, she manages to create a new space of interpretation, even though we know where the images come from. In this way, she creates an opportunity for the viewer to construct complex, individual stories, in which we can project our own thoughts and ideas.
