About Matthias Gubler

“When living in a time where digital media begin to affect our sense of that time lived, and even obscure life itself, then we ought to realize that we have taken a wrong turn somewhere. Any gesture that goes against the grain of the zeitgeist must be called radical. One artist who is doing just that is Matthias Gubler (*1981 in Zürich), who offers us pause, to reconsider the overlooked, seemingly obsolete and often fragile fragments of the everyday. In his ongoing video series fffound, for example, he transforms the mundane into a space of contemplation, through the meticulous animation of ordinary objects, challenging our perceptions of time, value, and presence. His work opens up questions about how we engage with the world around us and the significance we assign to the seemingly insignificant.[…]” – continue reading –

A quiet Rage Against the Economies of Distraction and Destruction
By Daniel Blochwitz

About the artwork

fffound is an ongoing project where everyday items are animated and collaged into perpetual mobiles. These objects—the mundane companions of our daily lives—usually maintain a quiet, functional existence. Through isolation and digital collage, Matthias Gubler grants them a new identity.

The calm, almost hypnotic recurrence of these sequences offers the viewer a rare commodity: time. It creates an opportunity to gain a new intimacy with the familiar and to rediscover the inherent value in what we usually overlook.

Beyond the aesthetic, the series questions our relationship with our material environment. In an age of disposability, Gubler asks if a rethink of our ecological responsibility is long overdue, suggesting that we have perhaps lost our sensitivity toward the world of things.
