Description : As stated by Mimi Wehr: “The quintessence of the work is not a mere reporting, but the intuitive experience of a voyeur. [...] He makes use of existent film material and increases its effect by adding his own sequences and composing them anew. Out of his personal experience, he thereby shows scenes of someone wandering the streets at night, of alien cities and gazing into stranger’s windows, into stranger’s lives. The phenomenal quiet and solitude recalls the ambiance as created by works of Doug Aitken. Both Aitken and Spasoski deal with homelessness, the alien and transitory, and neither of them offers a solution. Correspondingly, the artist makes use of his own compositions, which exhibit impressionist traits. The conjunction and composition of visual and acoustic elements generate a balance with emphasis neither on telling a story, nor scoring a film, nor the simultaneity of both. The sequences shown offer a broad spectrum of potential stories, but the scenes are presented as extracts and then fade out. The viewer does not receive a defined context, but a potpourri of impressions.”
