"Zugspitze in Glass"
Vanessa Hafenbrädl, Germany

GLASS MEET THE FUTURE FILM FESTIVAL 2021

20 march 2021 - 04 april 2021

Synopsis

This work is a tribute to glass. To work as a video artist, I am dependent on optic glass in several ways. At least three lenses are used in the way I work. You see Eibsee with the mountain Zugspitze in winter translated in to glass.
The film is projected onto different raw optical glass pieces. The sound is made with glass.

ARTIST STATEMENT
Vanessa Hafenbrädl

This work is an ambitious and longterm work mixing traditional glass techniques with contemporary approaches in medium and content.
The spoken word recordings is a melancholic Text of german nature writer Ganghofer from last century. Music is made with Cristal Baschet, these fade in and out of the space, like in a derelict ballroom of times gone by, adding to the atmospheric dreamlike sensation.
