| Das Gebäude, 2010-2016 |
HD video, animation, B&W and color, 10 min. 49
This project was supported by the Centre national des arts plastiques, support for artistic research, 2009
The video shows views from a Berlin apartment, facing an urban and nocturnal horizon, lit by countless spotlights belonging to construction sites. The video gradually focuses on a building that is being restored and transformed. Within its windows, visual quotations appear, reactivating memories that still haunt the architecture and landscape of the city. They are associated with images of the present, creating a confusion between the past and what is happening.
