synopsis

Non-finite Installation (1997) is a to—the—camera performance in which the artist uses her family souvenirs and objects important for her and marked by her personal memories. Her mother’s wedding jewelery, souvenirs from holidays, glasses, a microscope lens and other items appear in a static video image in accidental order. They are filmed through a glass pane under which the artist’s face is visible on a blue background. Numerous objects, sentimental witnesses of the artist’s emotional biography gradually fill in the frame and cover her face.

Place and time of documentation: 7th Media Art Biennale WRO 97, television studio, Wrocław, May 1997

artist's bio
Anna Płotnicka (PL), b. 1956, is an artist and curator, working in the intersection of performance, installation, and video art, whereas the last medium is for her a means of documentation, as well as a constitutive element of her works. In her works, she often explores the notion of place, understood as a place for living or a physical perception of space; she raises up questions of femininity and focusses on feelings and emotions. Her performances often take form of involving public live installations.
