Costa de Lavos

Camera movements on a pine (“Songshù” in Chinese) at dusk when the light is so soft. Film with nuanced hues and Chinese painting graphics.

A travel film.

Super 8mm / color / silent / 1S / 3' 00

A nod to Germaine Dulac. I filmed brass discs with camera movements. The discs deform and create new shapes; sometimes they glimpse each other, overlapping to create abstract forms. The sound is computer-generated.

Camera movements on “tamaris”, a plant that grows by the sea on the Ile de Ré, painting and Indian ink.

The nature of form is to hide the object rather than define it, and the nature of light is to conceal substance rather than to delineate.

The filmed object is a magnetic tape placed on pieces of mirrors. The whole film is based on the camera movements that are played with light, on the meanders of the magnetic strip. Precise and wild film with very tight framing. Abstract film. Visual music or philosophical film?... Chaos or Plato's cave?...

Graphic film. Intersecting lines. An exploration of visibility, some sequences are barely perceptible, disappear, then reappear. Lines, ruptures, erasures... But a set of lines moving together can also create a ballet. A film to sit back and watch time pass... and time has its own rhythm... suspended time... seconds of eternity.
