Through uncommon viewing angles, the movement of orbiting frames and slipped images, my aim is to render the strangeness of the reality surrounding and containing us visible.
An optical table on a tripod, manufactured in stainless steel, chromed plated steel and plexiglass. This motorized rotational filming device moves a surveillance camera through a slow hypocycloidal revolution: a rotation on the periphery of a rotation. When exhibited, video signals captured by the camera are projected on the wall behind the sculpture, creating a videographic mise en abyme of the space and the people around the machine. With this device, I have produced video clips and photographs: “Slipped Images”.
Project produced with the support of Conseil des arts et lettres du Québec.
