Atlantic Garden
/ Atlantic Garden
A panorama video showing people from different ideologic backgrounds grouped around a mansion. From idyllic scenes reminiscent of 19th century romanticism and the ecological movement, the view pans along a cultivated garden, ending at a cliff. ›Atlantic Garden‹ is part of a serial of thematic landscape panoramas dealing with globalisation and media influence. In them, the world is shown as a place of permanent simultaneous existence.

Bridge Kids
/ Bridge Kids
In the near future there are no adults, a tree house becomes a door to another dimension, and rocks release intuitive powers. Documentary, historiography and mythology collide and transform in a 16mm film showing a world of telepathic children interpreting technologies. A meditation collage of media & sci-fi cliche, Bridge Kids connects a research documentary on J.B. Rhine and the history of ESP / Parapsychology, with a science fiction drama portraying an adolescent's connection with the dead.

/ Filmscribble / Future I / Visions
Trance performance film sketches / motion sequences become individual segments, each of which, on its own, appears to be alienated, existing as an outlined study without a linear story line. The double images of the parallels created in the projection lead to a superimposition in the temporal/spatial vacuum.

Horizontal Intimacy
/ Horizontal Intimacy
Filmed in the chilly, indeterminate locale of airport terminals from around the world, Cho's surreptitious footage of travellers biding their time captures the ominous quietude unique to that space. A set of red orbs seem to stare back, eerily calling to mind the red eye of HAL from Kubrick's 2001. Perhaps these ›eyes‹ match the artist's role as an outsider looking coolly upon an unfamiliar world, longing for a communion that will always be disappointed in such a transient realm.

Oh
/ Oh
›Oh‹ seeks to reanimate the ambitious, utopian spirit of renegade architect Etienne-Louis Boullée (1728- 1799) and is true to the spirit of the utopian architectural tradition Boullée is part of. Although the historical reference to an unrealised architectural project adds a nostalgic, melancholy twist to ›Oh‹, De Clercq nevertheless stays true to her well-documented passion for images of futurity.
