VERNISSAGE > 22 July 2016 7-10 pm
LA PLAGE - 25 BLVD SAINT MARTIN - 75003 PARIS
Dot Dot Dot became boing boing boing
A group of suspended objects.
Three spheres rolling in the air, they look motionless.
A ball is always still in between the fall and the bounce.
Throwing a Ball…will many people come?
Look
I am looking
You are looking
Look
Gaze on me
My head is upside down
My back lies in a Pilates balloon
This position will affect my thinking
Your hands move like lilies
Blooming movements
Flourishing moment
Instinctive feelings are written on a wall in black spray
Thinking they will last forever but they go, like in a Lana del Rey song.
“I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it”
