"Displacement /
Kyrkbyn", Kyrkbyn library, Göteborg, SE 2014 / Photography / Artist talk. w. Hanna
Eliasson Today, there are many areas in our society that are considered
as ugly, industial areas, harbour, concrete jungle and there are more. The
type of areas that arent part of the citys PR, where the 1,000 ft glass
facade skyscraper or the picturesque wooden “old town” houses makes the cover
of the postcards. Ironically that thesame “old town” houses that just a
century ago was considered as slum or ghetto and seen as something that was
to decontaminate in order to be modern. In “Displacement” we work with contemplation’s of these areas,
this is how the world looks like according to us. There is no meaning in an
objective way of see things as we are humans and the tools that we use (in
our chase cameras) becomes a subjective view that in many ways are touched and
affected by way more than we see with our bare eye. What we do is to create
stories of how the place exposes in front of us. Everything together creates
a sum, of differences of the complexity of human and the environment they
live in. We use our cameras to twine environment and the perception of being
in it as a part of it. Our environment influences us, we want to create not
only a reflection with our cameras we are a part of an ongoing debate. Please have a look at our other project “Industrisemester”. And
