Another man's floor​ is an experiment of discussing through photography. It serves as a visual poem where performative acts are carried out in the landscape. Our cinematic language is made of still moving images that responds to each other and forms a visual dialogue.

Receiving the Grand Prize at Canon's New Cosmos of Photography in 2017 encouraged us in our metaphorical direction of storytelling. At a bar in Tokyo we formed a set of rules for our new work witch where to be a continuation of the feeling established, but expanding it into a visual dialogue between the two of us. A cinematic story where the journey is shaped by the road and the outcome is left to our interaction. We decided to build it as a playful game of communication, a visual dialogue, passing each other moving images without explanation. One man's ceiling turns into another man's floor. Not knowing the thoughts and ideas of each other, but rather challenged to read and respond based on the image itself.

The ceiling of our story was formed on the drift ice of the Greenland Sea where Trond was working as a trapper man in the spring of 2018. Benjamin received news of his safe return in the form of an image with endless drifting ice. His answer came as a portrait of a women swimming with fishes, in a lake of anthropocene origin in the Black Forest. A juxtaposition of wild and tamed nature was formed. The element of water grew strong and our dialogue traveled through an algae forest of the Arctic ocean. Then to an urban river inhabited by a musician, moving up in the mountains to an underground rocky creek. Then leaving the water for an abandoned airport, stepping by a line of large stone cairns before visiting the Chancellery in Berlin.

The work is presented as a two channel film-installation where our episodes are split to each side. The single images are compositions of landscape where the human body is framed as a sculpture in performative acts. They are due to the concept in authentic order, springing out of a corner in the room.

Discussing resources, emotions and nature we're inviting the audience to a visual conversation between the north and south of Europe.
