BOLEX MON AMOUR

A chronicle of the fantasies and dream of women in avant-garde contemporary cinema. The faces and bodies of new women haunt the paths and alleyways of avant-garde cinema.

"Radical pamphleteer film," Manifesto "can be used as a visual emblem for any avant-garde manifestation. Manifesto is a cry. A cry for finally a cinema freed from all economic, ideological or artistic constraints." (Nicole Brenez, Encyclopédie du court-métrage français, 2004)

A film driven by the musical universe of Patrice Kirchhofer.

A meditation on the atom. A film carried by the musical universe of Karl Boscovich.

The star Altaïr in a new dimension

Invocation to light. The hands probe the surroundings and sink deeper into the abstract space of the projection. They seek contact... In a mixture of pure colors and crystalline sounds, the light responds to the call, imbues the face with clarity and transmits its message.

Layers of colored matters spread in space. They transform and its movements let us suppose that there is an underlying law that directs the images. Ephese is thus a shape, continually mutating, although its essence remains the same.

Linked to the sun's eruptive activity, waves of particles regularly enter Earth's atmosphere. An intense and invisible shower then crosses the earth and our bodies.

A meeting with an entity of gigantic proportions and multiple faces, ALTAÏR is of heavenly nature and invites us to dive into it. Work-landscape, cosmos to explore, you must have the soul of a geographer to venture into the folds of this universe with uncertain borders.

A new vision of the star Altaïr.

A film carried by the musical world of Jacotte Chollet.

Light & hands, movement in the dark.

August 1992. I was working for a whole week in total darkness, in the image-by-image mode of my Super 8 camera. As I perceived an image on the screen, I started imagining what it would be if those images could show their own metamorphosis… But within a single frame, I had the sharp impression of a real contact behind the image itself. As if I could reach the formal and mathematical language of models… The images seemed to be whispering. More movement… more space…I keep developing this laboratory of shapes known as the Dervishes.

Aldébaran is the first film from a series of works on hybridization: body and light, color and rhythm. The series are transforming and spiritualizing human body by the use of light, or more precisely by the screening of a film directly to the skin. The body is therefore the only screen for the abstract images made from mathematical models. This encounter between body and light produces a particular and creative energy beyond shapes. Lyrical abstraction, mathematical modelisation and sensual exploration of light, this film is the depth perception of the body stridences.

Founded in the second half of the 1990s, the experimental film association L'Etna witnessed the transition from film to digital cinema. Its premises, located in the heart of Paris, were unable to withstand gentrification.
