A face and a street lamp in the background, flashing on and off. ‘In twilit intervals our gaze searches for a motion that cannot be located within the image. Due to unpredictable shifts of the length of the image, we produce the motion in between the frames ourselves: with our thoughts we construct a fictional image of time that only exists in terms of an ephemeral lingering in-between. The labyrinth of connections between the moving images holds the gaze, and no longer lets it roam free.’ (Patrik Schabus)
