The series White Museum assumes a key position within an extended notion of sculpture, making the landscape a part of the installation. An interior space of the exhibition building becomes a projection cabin, from where a film projector is throwing a squared field of white light to the outside. The landscape becomes a three-dimensional cinematic image, which can be watched from an empty room inside the building. The earth is turning, the visitor is standing still: he is all of a sudden inside the control mechanism, which he would be subject to outside. The outside world is becoming an image, an idea. White Museum has been shown in different site specific version, starting from 2010 where it was premiered as part of the exhibition Rosa Barba: Is it a two-dimensional analogy or a metaphor? At the Centre international d'art et du paysage de l'île de Vassivière, where the surrounding park became part of the installation.
