Derviches

1992 15min

August 1992. I was working for a whole week in total darkness, in the image-by-image mode of my Super 8 camera. As I perceived an image on the screen, I started imagining what it would be if those images could show their own metamorphosis… But within a single frame, I had the sharp impression of a real contact behind the image itself. As if I could reach the formal and mathematical language of models… The images seemed to be whispering. More movement… more space…I keep developing this laboratory of shapes known as the Dervishes.
