Pernille With Madsen

Pernille With Madsen works with video, photography and installation with which she investigates the architectural spaces and structures that surround our lives. In Pernille With Madsen’s work our conception of the relation between the two dimensional and the three dimensional, the surface and the spaces we occupy are investigated and at times become dissolved. Video is a medium which confuses the senses and our perception of the dimensions, as a relatable three dimensional room is reproduced on a flat surface whereby an element of disorientation is introduced. The interest in the collapse of well known structures, where spaces are transformed and become alien and strange to us, is a key theme in Pernille With Madsen’s work. With intervening spatial actions and strict but shimmering filmic sequences, the artist seeks to question our perception of reality and hereby open up the possibility of a new perspective.
