Inner Vampire features a selection of existing works of photography and moving image, as well as a newly produced video by the artist Dora Budor. Made with a range of contemporary consumer tools and materials, the works reference or transpose historical media formats — from 1920s cinema and early television broadcasting to structural film and digital video; and from Polaroid to its contemporary incarnation, Instax.
In the videos, subjectivity itself is taken to be a spatiotemporal form. Technique and process structure each piece, while distortion, repetition, and vibration occur as results of the physical effects on the camera and the lens. These effects disrupt the smooth consumption of images from a world designed to invite their capture. Urban sites developed with the screen in mind, recognizable or not, register a psychogeographic layer to the subjectifying forces of each mediation.
The exhibition is curated by Lisa Long and presented by DFI e.V. and Companion Culture as part of the series Towards Photography.
