GIANT is an installation spread over a wall and floor of a gallery
space. Lots of small human figures combine to form a giant figure on which
an animation of people climbing up is projected. The giant threatens a red
island where lit-up houses and spruces have retreated and solidified
horizontally as if windswept. The soundscape by Čtienne Charry crackles and
bangs. Animations, which are played on a loop on two separate monitors, are
like surveillance camera footage from inside the small houses. The work's
theme is collective fear.
Giant is a sister work to Panic Room and Village, two previous works by
Pirjetta Brander.
