MOBIL HOME
Irena Eden & Stijn Lernout

The installation and room-drawing „mobil home“ consists of three different elements:a sculpture, a linear drawing on the window-walls of the space and a thin neon tube attached to the back wall of the gallery. The shape of the sculpture is based on a two-dimensional drawing which is lengthened and stretched into the room. It refers in its basic design to a house. By translating the drawing into a three-dimensional body, by means of reduction and transmission of the perspective into the room, the sculpture however becomes abstract and amorph.

The drawing on the glass-walls of the gallery underlines the chosen perspective of the sculpture and also points towards or connects the sculpture with the exhibition place.As a third element the narrow neon tube is throwing a white light into the room, it is placed on the wall where all fictional lines come together and find themselves into the light as to be the horizon.The elements together also refer to the place of exhibition by means of taking over the light and fragile character and the reflections of stakleni grad.

The more project based moment of „mobile home“ will not visually be communicated, still it is part of the work. The house-object the artists have made will travel „by itself“ from Vienna to Sarajevo with the regular bus and find its Sarajevo- carport inside the gallery for the time of the exhibition. As it is a common way of transporting and supporting friends and relatives between the cities of the former „east“ and „west“, the journey of the „mobile home“ will be documented by video.

Instalacija "mobile home" se sastoji iz tri različita elementa: jednog centralnog u prostoriji postavljenog objekta, jednog crteža na površinama prozora galerije i jedne tanke, na zidu postavljene neonske cijevi. Objekt je nastao na osnovu dvodimenzionalnosti jednog crteža. U svojoj osnovi ima formu jedne kuće. No, na osnovu "prenosa" dvodimenzionalnog crteža u trodimenzionalno tijelo, redukcije i prenosa perspektivskog razvlačenja u prostoru, objekt djeluje apstraktno i amorfno.

Crtež na površinama stakla galerije se sastoji od pojedinačnih linija i pojačava perpektivsko prikazivanje objekta i ujedno ga je smještava u novi okvir galerijskog prostora. Kao treći element, neonska cijev baca jasno bijelo svjetlo i nalazi se na mijestu fiktivnog horizonta. Rad je usko povezan sa prostorom u kojem je postavljen, - "Staklenim gradom" - jer mu njegove staklene površine i iz njih proizlažeća odslikavanja pojačavaju opušteni i fragilni karakter.

Ideja rada "mobile home" posmatraču na osnovu čiste vizuelne komunikacije biva skrivena, iako naslov rada jasno na to upućuje: objekt, koji u svojoj osnovici se može prepoznati kao kuća, je taj "mobilni dom". Nastao je u ateljeu umjetnika u Beču i autobusom je poslan na put za Sarajevo.
