OEDIPUS REX

Conceived to be projected onto a 12m x 3,80m screen, these images accompany the performance of the opera-oratorio by Stravinsky. The different sequences evoke Belgium as a country with its back against the wall, keeping up a placid and almost resigned attitude nevertheless. Just like Thebes, the city which was ravished by the plague.
