GLOBAL GROOVE

John J. Godfrey - Nam June Paik

BETWEEN FLASHBACK AND DÉJÀ-VU

Krassimir Terziev
Two cameras monitor each other persistently. One - fixed on a tripod, turned directly up to the sky, while the second is attached to a drone that draws a vertical take off above the spot of the tripod, and landing back, trying to keep as much as possible the vertical axes of movement.

Having chosen them for their straightforwardness, Hockney drew up his own interpretations of these folk stories, with countless explicit references to the work of other artists, such as Breughel, Hieronymus Bosch or Leonardo da Vinci...

In the second I search for a way to represent the inability to feel. The third video is about the incompetence to speak, find words...
