The Bird and the Fish
-Film and multi media installation
---------------------------------------------
Solo show in which Blom was exhibiting a series of short films and prints up in Basecamp´s show room. Several Tv-monitors and one projection showing HD mp4 format, garments, waders and prints.
For Nothing compares to... the artist was working from the philosophical question:
"If a bird and a fish fell in love, where would they make a home?"
Through Blom´s way of personifying the roles of animals and elements in nature, she hopes to mirror our society’s “mainstream” culture of
anthropocentrism and speciesism.
With that mirroring effect, the work aims to criticise the belief of the human race being the most significant one on the planet.
