Process Statement
Kurt Caviezel photographs the world using publicly accessible webcams.
So he does not operate like a conventional photographer – in a particular place with a camera at his eye ready to capture that “decisive moment” in the flow of real events. Instead he sits at home at his computer, “strolls” per mouse click through the whole internet and collects images that appear briefly on his screen before being overwritten again by subsequent images.
These images are from all realms of life, between the normally protected (by one’s own four walls) private sphere and the exterior spaces surveyed for security reasons by cameras; foreseeable images as well as totally surprising images.
