THE NEURASTHENIC

Hubert Marécaille
On learning that cancer can be hereditary, and immediately persuaded to have a strong risk due to his familyʼs history, an unemployed person consults a medium, who, pessimistic about its future, suddenly puts in doubt all his efforts to fit into society : his life then seems invain and useless, at the thought of his approaching death constantly on his mind...  ...

STAR SYSTEM

Edith Dekyndt
Edith Dekyndt’s work seeks to move us by means of nothing or almost nothing. Things are made and unmade very quickly, and it is this speed between appearance and disappearance, sometimes slowed down to be lost, which makes up Dekyndt’s images.

THE DOUBLE

Roy Villevoye - Jan Dietvorst
An exacting sculpture of a white, middle-aged male is hammered out. Voiceovers breathe life into the man whilst his appearance is accurately reconstructed. The empty shell becomes a personality thanks to the voices from the Netherlands and Papua, but who is this man really? The impression created and substantiated is simultaneously mysterious and revealing....

THE SPINNING WHEEL

Harald Thys - Jos De Gruyter
Harald Thys and Jos de Gruyter make videos in their own typical style. Man is hardly a pawn in a game of chess, a tragicomic puppet functioning in a system which surpasses him. The style is minimalist, the characters are determined by the structure and they are limited in space, language and movement...
