Dramatiska Institutet : Image as Site

• Dramatiska Institutet (2020) portrays a TV studio using a camera crane (scanner) that is standard equipment in TV productions. The crane, which has a motorized tripod head that can rotate around its own axis, forms the basis for a visual language we know well, namely TV studio productions. When applied as a scanner and used to scan the appearance of the room that surrounds it, the system’s capacity for registration is explored as an alternative to its more dramaturgical affordances. A different sense of space arises and we move into a different experience, perhaps one in which the human body's relation to gravity is no longer the norm. The work results from a series of artistic investigations of camera movement and of how different mechanisms for camera movement affords different experiences of space and place, conducted by artist Ellen Røed and cinematographer and research assistant Ashley Briggs as part of artistic research project Image as Site.
