Details:

In his film, White-Sobieski takes the urban structure apart seeking its identity behind appearances. The cityscapes of his series Deconstructed Reality (and Deconstructed Cities) appear as images of transitions and temporary states. They embody the vision of our world today; when the reckless pursuit of economic power becomes the final target of development, in resistance to this new totalitarian force, society reconsiders its own freedoms, structures, especially in urban areas. The city has become a place of conflict creation and conflict resolution. Observing the city through a deconstructive lens, White-Sobieski depicts London as an imaginative space in virtual environments. It is an evocative idea, another accent of those visions that have emerged in different appearances throughout recent history, and which have often been associated, in one way or another, with Great Britain. It is a powerful image of being and becoming at the same time. White-Sobieski superimposes and transforms the relationship of a human being with postmodern city’s metamorphosis. The film retains the moment of disappearance - wrote Jean Baudrillard in The Art of Disappearance; this slight displacement gives an object the magic, the discrete charm of the previous existence. White-Sobieski takes the object apart seeking its identity behind appearances. The cityscapes of his film series Deconstructed Reality and related Deconstructed Cities appear both familiar and yet still unknown. Upon closer observation, it becomes clear that these urban images are of transitions and temporary states. These fragments of reality create relationships to the individual sequences and allow the film to become a transformed world. Based on cityscape scenery of many metropolitan cities of the world, a film project Deconstructed Reality followed. Almost existential, the films transmitted feeling of being lost in the chaos of reality, a world of logical contradictions, life gets deconstructed and shuffled. This film series is an ongoing project and includes New York City, Paris, London, Madrid, Tokyo and other mega-cities of the world. Fragments of reality, flashbacks, thoughts, hopes, dreams, and nostalgia subject materialization in Deconstructed Cities/Deconstructed Reality.
