English, no subtitles

Bystanders is an experimental journey, one thing leads to another in a weird subconscious logic, like a dream or a collective memory. A sunrise over and over again, bees singing about their future, yellowing forests, air cooling fans, airport runways, railway platforms, a sea in many colors, a hurricane, electrical wires, the earth from space, a desert, light particles, all nestled in with a soundtrack full of samples, voices, and the pulse of the Earth which extends all the way into outer space.

Petra Lindholm (b. 1973) is a visual artist working mainly with video, sound and photography. One of her areas of interest lies in describing memories and depicting the passage of time. Her works have been presented in various exhibitions in Finland, Scandinavia, Europe and the USA.
