I found an image of a projection space in the April edition of Frieze set up by Katarina Zdjelar to show her piece 'Shoum' in Rotterdam 2009. It is an amazing idea – to set up a semi-free standing dark grey wall against a window. The light emitted by the window behind the partial cube seems to accentuate the sharpness and brightness of the image contained within. The partial cube, partial screen gives the space a sort of modernist stage set aesthetic, neither walled in nor totally free but acts as a 3D mount for the work. There is no adequate description for the limbo-like status of this projected space and I cannot find any internet reference image. Tomorrow I shall follow this entry with a sketch to give a more useful impression. For now this is merely a statement of my appreciation.
