4K video installation
endless duration, random play, stereo sound
About us (refrain to refrain) defies fixity; improvised performances escape linguistic expression, the morphology of its figures evades easy legibility and finds provisional alterity in new forms, as well as sounds, troubling the codes language imposes on bodies.
The video itself relies on the logic of chance, as shuffle play disrupts its linearity, live editing clips in random order and also constantly changing the gradient colors of its mise-en-scène.
