Denicolai and Provoost’s hello, are we in the show? is a large-scale video installation featuring a fragmentary animated narrative. The images used come from a video of a walk in Sonian Wood, one of Europe’s oldest forests, on the outskirts of Brussels. An account of these images was the basis for a storyboard which was then processed by a team of experts to produce an animated film. The film depicts a series of episodes involving the seemingly insignificant events that unfold in the forest in the absence of humans – a duck drying off its wings, the light shifting through the foliage, a magpie lying dead at the foot of a tree, flies flying over it. Coupled with the scale of the projection, the work’s sound creates an immersive environment, a sense of finding oneself deep into the forest, surrounded by the sounds of animals, insects and the natural world, as well as by the distant hum of human activity – the sound of cars travelling on a faraway highway, an aeroplane flying overhead and other such sounds, reminding us of how we have encroached our animal habitats almost everywhere.
