Britney Spears – everyone knows her. You love her. You hate her. But who is this girl – or what? I followed this question. The result is the interactive video installation ALL EYES ON US, an artistic analysis of the global pop stars and media phenomenon Britney Spears. Based on music videos of the entertainer from the years 1998-2011, which present stereotypical female characters as Lolita, Vamp, Mother, Bitch, Performer, these figures are represented by a covered dancer who performs song quotes in the original costumes and dance moves of the video.

In the installation, the nine figures stand side by side in front of a keyboard and can be played to engage in dialogue with each other. The viewer becomes a composer, who can rearrange and exploit these dancing shells and their messages. The work disassembles the product Britney Spears into its communication elements and examines the fluent image transformations, which aim to open up to new audiences again and again over the years.

 

 

ARTISTS


Manja Ebert (DE)

Manja Ebert, 1983, is a Berlin based media artist. Manja Eberts works have different approaches. In addition to the substantive and formal study of space and time, they are often a result of observation of everyday life. Currently she is working on themes of popular culture, such as the audiovisual representation of pop stars and self-promotion concepts of young people on the Internet. For her installations she often works with collaging sound to building choirs which can also lead to cacophony.
