About this artwork

Tunnel vision works as a metonymy of our own vision and the photographic medium. As light is projected to the bottom of the tunnel, the viewer can wonder what lies at the end of it.

Geert Goiris travels the world, seeking out unusual places and interpreting them in enigmatic images. Despite the high resolution afforded by his large-format film camera, his images don’t overwhelm us with definitive information. They are intentionally unpinned from a specific era, giving the feeling that we could be simultaneously looking at the past and the future.
