Me trying to change the world, or: A contemplative scene in which a woman and a group of cows engage in a prolonged mutual gaze. Through this simple encounter, the work explores questions of attention, projection, and the shifting boundaries between human and animal. The sustained act of looking transforms an ordinary situation into a subtle negotiation of presence, inviting viewers to consider how meaning, empathy, and authority emerge through observation.

Presented as a two-channel 16mm film installation, the scenes unfold in continuous loops. The repeated exchange of looks creates a cyclical structure in which observer and observed constantly change positions. Moments of stillness and duration invite reflection on authority, vulnerability, and the ways meaning is produced through looking.
