  Pipilotti Rist in London


These are some pics of the video intallation of artist Pipilotti Rist at the Hauser & Wirth Gallery in London.
The images are projected from a hanging projector (the dark round thing on the image) onto the mirror floor and the reflection fills the ceiling of the gallery (formerly a bank). On the other hand, the projector casts another video directly onto a decorative plaster circle on the ceiling (maybe the space for a chandelier?). It all makes for a pretty amazing ensemble, as you are invited to lie on some sort of bed-looking-benches and look upwards to the ceiling (that's how I got these pictures). Meanwhile, a strange music fills the air. 100% Pipilotti Rist.

I discovered the work of Pipilotti Rist in Amsterdam back in 1998, then she came to meet me in Bilbao, my hometown, and our paths cross again here in London. I love the magical images and her slow motion world...

Me encanta el nombre de la artista. Debe de ser sobrina de mi ídolo de infancia, "Pippilotti" Calzaslargas :-P

En serio, espero que dejen estar un buen rato tumbado mirando esas cosas en el techo, porque tiene que molar un montón. Yo quiero un proyector.
 
Mi nene de menos de dos años ha alucinado con esa foto o cuatro subfotos de colorines. Decía pa pa.

Del resto ni él ni yo hemos entendido nada.

Un saludo.
