Installation View: The House on Weirdfield Street, Notebook 1 & 2
2015
Rendered entirely by hand and brought to life through stop-motion animation, "The House on Weirdfield Street" unfolds across two linked notebooks, each a self-contained chapter in a larger, quietly unsettling world. Notebook 1 runs eleven minutes and twelve seconds, while Notebook 2 extends the narrative to seventeen minutes and twenty-five seconds, together forming a sustained meditation on domestic space, memory, and the strangeness lurking within the familiar. Bollinger's process is inseparable from the work's texture: the visible grain of hand-drawn mark-making animates each frame with a rawness that digital production cannot replicate, giving the piece an intimate, almost confessional quality that rewards prolonged attention. The choice of the notebook as both literal format and conceptual anchor speaks to Bollinger's interest in vernacular imagery and the psychological weight of everyday objects. Movement in the animation is deliberate and slightly halting, a rhythm that mirrors the way memory itself operates, surfacing in fragments rather than smooth continuity. The result is something that occupies an unusual position between drawing, film, and sculpture, collapsing those categories without fully belonging to any one of them. Available as Edition 2 through 5 for each notebook, this work offers collectors an opportunity to acquire a signed piece from a significant moment in Bollinger's development as an artist working across the boundary of image and time. Currently presented through Zürcher Gallery, with locations in New York and Paris, the installation view captures the work as it exists in dialogue with physical space, reinforcing that these animations are conceived not merely for the screen but as presences within a room.
