"Digital media will be first visibly connected with a digital player. The concept Your Potential Property pushes the "player" to the centre of consideration. Digital images made up of photos and videos are shown on canvas-like self made screens. Large format pixels create a drastic reduction of visual information. The source material put through this player, like through a filter, takes on a complete new aesthetic. The original image loses meaning, but is still not completely unrecognisable. Intrinsic to this concept is working with images that are not self produced."
