Saving Our Screens While Losing Our Minds

Our screens currently function as our window to the world. Since the pandemic, most of our social interactions happen through the surfaces of our devices via various video-call programs, where the counterpart invades our privacy and vice versa. This work is an exhibition of our screensavers showcased on your screens throughout the world. Install our work on your own device, bringing the video installation normally experienced in an exhibition context, in the comfort of our own homes.
Initiated by Eva Dumoulin, Sohyeon Lee with participation from Majd Amer, Julie Högner, Sohyeon Lee, Bastian Moosburger, Leen Murad, Supervised by Maureen Mooren and Malin Gewinner.
