Garage - sometimes you can see much more, single channel video projection, audio, 2009 – 2011

Giovanni Ozzola (b.1982, Italy) works primarily in video and installation. Central to Ozzola’s practice is the exploration of three-dimensional space and its relationship to light. The senses sharpen in the dark and are then overwhelmed by the strong light of a wider space.

The shutter operates as a diaphragm between two dimensions.The video sequence of a roller door rising and falling dramatically alters the viewers’ perception of the room the work is installed within.
