As scholar David Green has explained, \u201cClaerbout\u2019s work subtly proposes a relationship of similitude between film and the objective world that lies outside and beyond the narrative space of cinema. In doing so he poses a set of questions about how we experience film and about the nature of the medium itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, Claerbout manipulates both moving and still imagery to suggest an otherworldly level of existence, something that might refer to a specific place or event, but the timeline of which is not clear, oscillating between both past and present. The element of sound is critical in many of the works, often used as either a narrative device or a \u201cguide\u201d for the viewer to navigate the architectural space in the film. Claerbout\u2019s oeuvre is characterized by a meticulous attention to production details, painstakingly created often over a period of years. The resultant works are immersive environments in which the viewer is invited to engage both philosophically and aesthetically.<\/p>\n<p>Claerbout studied at the Nationaal Hoger Instituut voor Schone Kunsten in Antwerp from 1992 to 1995 and participated in the DAAD: Berlin Artists-in-Residence program from 2002 to 2003. Claerbout\u2019s work is included in major public collections worldwide, including: Centre Georges Pompidou Mus\u00e9e National d\u2019Art Moderne, Paris, France; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, Germany; Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Canada; The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Walker Art Center, and many others.<\/p>\n<p>David Claerbout lives and works in Antwerp, Belgium and Berlin, Germany.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12426\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12426\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12426 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=640%2C426&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=696%2C464&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=1068%2C712&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?resize=630%2C420&amp;ssl=1 630w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/DC-2022-SKNY_Dark-Optics_Install-Photo_Jason-Wyche_019_edit-Large.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12426\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Installation view of David Claerbout: Dark Optics at Sean Kelly, New York, April 27 &#8211;
