Storm in a Tea Glass
By Anna Frants
Media Lab Cyland
2012

Video, a glass with a holder on the scale of 1/3, audio

Problems of an individuum close the rest of the world for him.  And, at the same time, they neither concern people around him nor influence the tide of life around him… a tragedy of one is of no difference to millions… any artist experiences his life, his emotions, his relationship with the world and society in his creative works (reflecting upon himself).
A storm in a tea glass – born by the artist’s inspiration – a storm of creativity does not end… it dies with him.

Socks Snapper
By Anna Frants
Media Lab Cyland
2012

Socks, lamps with silicon coating, computer programming

In memoriam of house pets
We see a multitude of multicolored socks alternatively glowing in the dark.  Now one of them bursts into a bright light, now another, not having found a pair for itself… perhaps it is being chewed under the sofa…
Viewers are encouraged to bring photos of deceased pets for memorial wall.

Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors

2012

Video installation

Shadows of the glass vessels irridesce in the rays of backlight.  The only remaining thing is the play of light that reminds of them… much like the memory of many generations retains words, habits and stories that have to do with our ancestors who are long gone from our life, but not from our memory.

Vexation of Spirit

Video

It is unclear what one wants… maybe a piece of pork, maybe a revolution… love or solitude… to feel compassion or to blow up the world …  Isn’t it true that this plight of spirit is familiar to everyone…?
