GÁBOR ŐSZ: Tautology, 2012
Video projection, 6’37”
In the initial scene of the film white light is projected onto three walls of a room by three projectors. The number of projectors refers to the spatial dimension bounded by planes as well as to the visual and spatial relationships accumulated by the recordings. Since each of the walls shown in the film serves as a projection surface, we can shift our gaze from one projection surface to the other, allowing us to have a more complex perception about the connection between space and image. 
The illusion of the encompassing space filters into the uncoded white squares, creating a tautological sign, in which the picture of the film shows the place of the recorded image in space. A coordinate system marking the relations between picture and space gradually develops, and the projection of newer and newer recordings multiplies the complexity of movement resulting from the repeated projection of recordings surveying the picture and the surrounding space.
