In Window Mediation, the components of generic, discarded LCD screens are reconfigured to create multiple layers of technological mediation which interact with its adjacent outside surroundings.

Partial video-painting, partial contemporary ”stained glass”, the work presents two site-specific videos viewed through dismantled yet functional LCD panels, simultaeously projecting an image and retaining a see-through transparency: in this manner we see video of the surrounding environment while also seeing the actual surrounding environment through the screen transparency. This final layer of technological mediation and framing - the window - remains in dialogue with the looping videos as the outdoor conditions fluctuate and change.
