Tableaux III
video 16' - 2008
A serie of photographs was made during a period of 14 days.
The viewers standpoint was every day exactly the same as the day before, at exactly the same hour. At that time of the day, the light was neutral and the sky seemed a void with no depth. The building - a pier - appears dark with little details in the surroundings. The place looks deserted. As the serie progresses, the viewer is aware of the minimal changes of the light. As well of the repetitive sequence he is making.
Nevertheless the tides, the reflections of the light and weather conditions turns the minimal purpose in a fascinating sequence. These photographs were used as stills for the video installations.
