Kompressor Variante
Pau, 2025
„This huge machine, which unsuccessfully attempts to record images of itself and the audience/space in a frustrating, never-ending loop, is a hodgepodge of technology, including surveillance cameras and screens. Both comical and playful, the sculpture asks the audience to reconsider their reverence and fear of technology.“

„Clemens Fischer's "Compressor" adds another dimension to the exhibition, insisting on the physical and conceptual act of compression itself. In an age where algorithms relentlessly compress, reduce, and optimize our data, Fischer's work forces us to confront what is lost in the process. The piece makes visible the violence inherent in compression—the way information is squeezed, flattened, and stripped of nuance—while questioning whether efficiency always serves our interests or those of the systems that demand it.“
