Video and sound installation, variable dimensions

Transparent curtains and transparent pins

Broadcasting of soundtracks (testimonies and oxygen therapy sound) via several speakers

Projection of an HD video, 30', colour, sound

Guided and soothed by an oxygen therapy sound (liquid air), the spectators discover a projector placed on the floor in the middle of extended curtains. A video of hands-on a white sheet is projected onto the ceiling and passes through the drapes. As the fabrics move, these different transparent layers are accompanied by an audio testimony from the artist's grandmother, who used to live in a retirement home, an institution for dependent elderly people (EPHAD). Her voice resounds in the space to create a spatialization of sound.

Cartography and documentary of the intimate, this poetic work aims to raise questions about morality, care and ethics, both life and death, isolation linked to the pandemic, solitude and the acceptance of living conditions, between dependence and expectation. Time, past and present, merge between memories and present condition. Being confronted with one's vital needs and being accompanied, what are the hidden sides of this last home?
