Taking the technical possibilities and spatial structure of the PanoramaScreen as a starting point, the work combines the fields of film and sculpture. The visual contents and the spatial design create a landscape taking the visitor on a journey into a fascinating emblematic cosmos: On the level of images, panoramic video footage showing a helicopter flight across the Italian Dolomites merges with a triptych of video sequences referring to a film by Russian director Alexandre Dovjenko.

The staging of the environment draws from motifs of different tribal cultures, which are confronted with allusions to technologies of the recent past and the present.

As is characteristic for Bruyère's work, the artists adapts unusual finds and elements from various sources, from cultural history and the present and merges them into a multilayered, poetic space of images and references that investigates socio-cultural aspects of the global digital age.
