Green Screen

Photo of a deer gazing at the visitor, 60x90cm; 2 month timelapse of natural growth, 7 min, 16:10 with soundtrack

In screen-based media green screen is used to mark parts of the image meant for replacement with something else, e.g. another background or image. In this series, green screen acts as a surface that helps to visualize natural phenomena, but also as a placeholder, as a space for imagination, to re-envision relationships between human, technology and nature.

The series was part of a solo show Attention Figures at the Contemporary Art Museum of Estonia that inquired into methods used to occupy our attention, how imagination is shaped and visions of reality are created.
