Photo installation with sound scape.
24 digital constructions of 76 x 63.5 cm each

Language is integral to February 1949 which features 24 digitally altered photos accompanied by a recorded soundscape. The images consist of a series of trees along the shores of the Danube enveloped in fog, which gradually evolve into densely layered abstractions. The accompanying soundscape also suggests an evolving personal journey and uses oral recordings in five languages along with sound effects representative of the historical period of WW II, the Nazi invasion and the Soviet occupation of Hungary. Variations and inversions on my favourite piano piece of that period (the First Movement of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata) are used to express the discord and fragmentation of my journey. The relationship between the audio and visual components merges to create an ultra space that allows for a deeper reading.
