Vibration of a material and immaterial trace
Shape(less), 2017
HD video, 5’17’’
Immersion into another world makes it possible to evoke utopia. It can switch from one moment to another to the process of dystopia. Washing powder is but a metaphor that questions the transformation of matter, the sublime intertwined with the apotheosis of the gesture. Its repetition can lead to its decline or even its disappearance. Contemplation and marking are thus revealed to a reflection on the notion of eugenics, the will to aim to “perfect” society.
