A photograph that was produced for the film Blade Runner but never used functions as a memory implant. Someone is looking for something invisible under the furniture in a house. A lighthouse is climbed to confront it with its notion of orientation. Irena Haiduk, Marietta Mavrokordatou, and Luzie Meyer penetrate spaces, reveal hidden dimensions and their inherent relations, and search for a way to translate them into pictures. Light plays a central role in this: it becomes corporeal, a protagonist, makes the photographic image possible, and has the potential to erase it again.

Repeatedly failing to align with light, a quote from a film by Luzie Meyer, refers to the use of visual disruptions and optical refractions. The failure to align with light alludes to the skepticism shared by the artists regarding the visual and its impact on perception, memory, and narration. The exhibition tells of the attraction of the absent, of the appearance and disappearance of pictures, and of the vertigo of orienting oneself.
