This video is part of a larger-scale piece that was first shown in Dodonoupouli, a settlement near the sacred site of ancient Dodoni. It was presented as a video installation, aiming to capture the essence of escapism, isolation, and transcendental meditation. From the very moment the visitor experiences the piece, the sensation of isolation overcomes them, leading to a meditative dimension. There is no outside world.
[The footage was captured in Fagaras mt, Transylvania, Varful Iezerul Caprei, 2417m]
"There is no outside world. There is no outside. Nor is there an inner sanctum in which I can take refuge from inimical external forces. The perceiver [mind] in as aspect of the perceived [body] and conversely: person and environment are continous". Arlond Berleant – The Aesthetic of Environment
