Markus Selg sees the world as a place where technology and spirituality exist side by side, sometimes quite literally.

This installation shows images filmed by Selg during his travels in Benin, West Africa. While there, he became interested in voodoo. Images of flying bats, a red twinkling screen and a video of the lake village of Ganvie filmed from a canoe create a dialogue in this work.
