Karin van Pinxteren
You see the other person, you are yourself, on the other hand you can only see yourself completely in the mirror. In conclusion, one’s own existence is reasonably invisible while the existence of others is entirely in the picture. This creates the will to reflect and communicate that are ways to make your own existence concrete. Attempts to synchronize follow attempts to synchronize. Because of the impossibility of this, because we are never on the same wavelength, not with the other person and not with the self, it turns out to be infinite movements.
Karin van Pinxteren
Karin van Pinxteren (Nederland, 1967) makes installations, performances, video, two-dimensional work, writes contemplative texts on her Nightportier blog and makes short poetry. In her work van Pinxteren basically seeks out perspectives of the gaze and its focus set within relational structures. Subsequently, and more specific, she explores these perspectives in settings that allow for multiple angles of vision and parallel focus points as she plays this field’s symbolic order.
