Review Quotes
Emilie Bickerton | The Times Literary Supplement (TLS)
"Victor Burgin takes the idea of the remembered or shared film rather differently, bringing it outside the auditorium and into the 'cinematic heterotopic': our image-saturated world"
i-D Magazine
"Burgin explores the impressionistic qualities of cinema and how, in
recollection, the viewer relates to image: exploring how memory and
circumstance place certain sequences in our psyches, the overwhelming beauty
of certain images and sequences becoming larger than the bodies of work
they¹ve hailed from . . . Burgin's art swoon is nearly as tempting as some
of the beauty he finds in small, strange places."
