Damijan Kracina - Žeblji / Nails (00:06:34)
Production: Akademija za likovno umetnost, Ljubljana, 1995
The black-and-white footage of a performance shot from a static camera dates to the time when the artist was studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana. The performer looks at sculpted busts, and hammers nails into them, seeking a way to examine the traditional sculptural format without employing a process of construction or deconstruction. The work is also humorous, as if the artist were trying to say that the sculpture is ‘hammered’ in the head.
