[Arrêt du image] Détail sur le visage reconnu

Video-performance, 1 minute 11 seconds

Presented at Dazibao as part of the group exhibition proximity ⸱ plaisir ⸱ plasticité, regard sur la performance, curated by Emma-Kate Guimond, under the supervision of France Choinière.

Detail on the recognized face explores the gesture of applause, hands at head height. The face is constantly revealed by the opening of the hands, while it seems to be shattered by their closing, until the optical effect provokes its erasure. The video-performance questions the value of recognition and its relationship to subjectivity.
