* IN FREE FALL, an exhibition inspired by Hito Steyerl’s essay, ‘In Free Fall: A Thought Experiment on Vertical Perspective.’, in which she explains that our spatial orientation is changing very much because of the increasing use of aerial views like google maps. We grow accustomed to the “God’s eye” view In this exhibition we present a collection of works that incorporate ‘watching from a distance’ and ‘a view from above’ as a basis for production. Curated by Joshua Thies and Emma van der Put.
