Ronnie van Hout demonstrates his interest in horror with Psycho. Picking up on film references, it features the artist’s self-analysis in the starring role. The scale model of the house-on-the-hill in Psycho is straight out of the 1960 film by Alfred Hitchcock. Through the house’s window screens a shadowy video of the artist, performing a schlock knife frenzy.See more detail about this artwork
