On Perspective is an audiovisual installation featuring a rotating video projector, designed specifically for the unique globe-shaped architecture of platform BUNKER. The installation is a contemporary interpretation of a panorama painting; the 19th-century proto-cinematic precursor to modern day entertainment technologies such as virtual reality, IMAX, and immersive installations. All of these entertainment systems rely on semi-naturalistic 360-degree reproductions of the physical world, and therefore employ principles from perspective drawing. This technique originated in the Renaissance with a desire to represent the world as accurately and naturally as possible. Today, perspective drawing is a fundamental premise for how we depict the world around us. On Perspective investigates the relationship between our perception of the world and our experience of it.
For over a decade, Magnus Pind has created video works as an ongoing visual analysis of the technological, societal, and personal systems that shape our lives. Pind’s video design for theater has been shown on some of Europe’s largest stages, including the Vienna State Opera (2014) and the Royal Danish Theatre (2016). His installations and performances have been shown at venues such as Kunsthal Aarhus (2023), Kunstforeningen Gl. Strand (2023), and Transmediale (2017).
