Landscape with two heads

The animationloop "landscape with two heads"(2015) presents a character that Danberg created for his three-part moviecycle "Order" (2013-15). The disparate combination of classical sculpture with a simplified illustrative landscape is confronted with the idiosyncratic construction of the body, which is fluctuating between a biological object and a emblematic human figure. This combination documents Danbergs attemt to form a coherent postmodern picture by using fragments of different art-historic contexts . The corresponding uncertainty of this experiment is represented accordingly by the slight swaying of the different picture parts and the sentimental change of the lighting conditions.
