In Ictu Oculi, 2009

Single channel video, HDV, colour, sound, 16:9 10min 35sec.

 

A table stands in the middle of a barren landscape, a feast of food and wine awaits, but the guests are absent. Vultures come to eat our food and destroy our setting: the still life, the banquet, the space of enjoyment and civilization. The vultures, the beasts linked to death and dirt, arrive unannounced and like in a fable, represent for us our own qualities.
