INSIGHTS
Carissa Rodriguez's exhibition "Imitation of Life" at Kunstverein München uses a minimalist video installation to explore motherhood by capturing the reflection of dawn in a skyscraper from her child's room.
Installation view: Carissa Rodriguez, Imitation of Life, Kunstverein München, Munich, 2024
Rodriguez uses drone cinematography to capture the essence of dawn, but instead of focusing on the sunrise itself, the video emphasizes its reflection in a skyscraper, as seen from her child’s room. This choice of perspective underscores themes of interiority and exteriority, consciousness and the unconscious, and the duality between daydreaming and productive work. The use of a commercial LED screen, which emits light instead of absorbing it, adds a modern touch and reconsiders the concept of projection in video art.
