Video-performance
16 min.

It was about experiencing the collapse between the body and its consciousness. My body being forced to maintain a physically demanding position, the issue was to memorize and simultaneously recite a trite story coming from a correspondence with a friend. By repeating the performance, weariness wins my body and modifies my speech capacity to the point of twisting the tale.

*** The Stories project requires viewing in an environment that supports intimacy. This can be done using a monitor with earphones. When viewing the video, there is a compulsory segment before the main menu, which is the reading of the story that will be narrated throughout the video. The main menu consists of a series of small windows (8 stories). These stories are not numbered and have no title. The reading is therefore in the order of one's choice.***
