Aykan
Sebastian Buerkner, 2018, UK, DCP, 10'

Shot in Vienna during the divisive presidential elections of 2016, visiting outsider Buerkner creates a distinct impression of the city. In this distinct stereoscopic film two separate image streams merge into spatial entities through the act of viewing. Aykan juxtaposes different 3D images to mystify and renew the cityscape. At first, the results are oppressive and disorienting, with the eye unable to comprehend what it is seeing, but as the effect takes hold, it becomes clear the city is being experienced from an entirely new perspective.
