Scope and content

Remixes-Tapes is a series of six videos exploring the questions of movement, degradation, light and color visual impact, corporal representation and mobility on screen, and communication between men and women. All videos are made from extracts of famous occidental movies - featuring Louise Brooks, Gene Kelly, Catherine Deneuve – and while deconstructing their representative function, propose another lecture to the movie. Gradually, what emerges from one tape to another is a visual evolution from relative immobility to illisible acceleration – a round trip maybe looking for the end of cinema - ,and an evolutive content from the woman loneliness representation to her standing in front of the man, and the communicational issues it brings out. Remixes-Tapes is a video work exploring the territory of cinema, a proposition in movement questioning the possibility of immobility, and finally an evocation of human loneliness dealing with communicational issue. The conciliation of all these contradictions makes its lecture possible of multiple interpretation, but the general feeling is one of a bright and colourful nostalgia.
