NEMAWASHI CACAHUÈTE (A-SIDE)
Charley CaseThe work of Charley Case is often based on a binary notion. This video is constituted by a two-part form, modelled after a peanut. It is the biotope of pairs of organisms, uprooted bodies evolving around each other, cherishing each other ephemerally or ultimately melting into an intangible unity...
RACINES LOINTAINES

They were both made without a camera and with limited technical means...

Messieurs DelmotteMessieurs Delmotte is holding a crown of large coloured feathers in front of his face. He dances in circles in a sort of inept American Indian raindance. Afterwards he remains still. This work is part of the series Brokendown Dream...
