The EGOTRIP.TV exhibition project, created by film maker Daniel van Hauten, uses video installatieons to bring togheter lives and dreams creating moments where reality and fiction become inseparable.
With a mix of charm and emotion, the individual stories of people in Recife, Brazil are transformed into idiosyncratic descriptions of everyday life in this South American city. An unembellished portrayal of individual reality is the result. It is a portrayal that is likewise a reflector of the omipresence of the media, a phenomenon from which the individual imagination is barely able to detach itself. In EGOTRIP.TV stories from everyday life clash with the flux of time and space in dreams. With a self-constructed photographic camera, van Hauten moves into picture to show how those interviewed deal with the tension between wish and reality.
EGOTRIP.TV came about in the context of a Made in Mirrors -Â residency in Recife, in March-April 2009
