http://www.lightstalkers.org/galleries/contact_sheet/32149 Images by Geert Wachtelaer exhibiton 'waiting for Freud'This work is about the relationship between text and image, imagining, and – more broadly – the tension between fiction and reality. The difference between reality and art, the relation between the individual and itself, creating a space at the spot. The difference between reality and art is the moment when the spectator shows interest in what’s happening. There are parallels between filmprojection and psycho-analyses. Freud called his psycho-analyses in the beginning a form of art. Mechanisms of projection is the base of Freud’s 'Jenseits des Lustprinzipes'. This work reproduce, implicit or silently, the architecture of the exhibition space. A contamination of the space. A line, a border between public and private. It is also an unalienable source of information and the visual aspect is one of illusion, like Plato's cave, a projection of the reality, so is it reality? Or only a projection of reality? What is a videoprojection? A projection, a moment where a lot of visitors looking together towards something, therefore you can call it a collective moment. But a private moment for the individual. Geert Wachtelaer is a media artist. He was born in Aalst, Belgium. He has studied film directing at the RITCS, Brussels (Rijksinstituut voor Toneel en Cultuurspreidingstechnieken).
