Home Cinema - Laboratory

Residence, house, refuge, cave, shared apartment, family home, nest, burrow, den. Membranes we build, places for what is within. This project is approached as a research practice about these limits that appear to define our intimate experience and protect us from what is outside. Like the angel of Win Wenders or the main character in '3-Iron' by Kim Ki-duk, the viewer becomes camera, lens and disembodied microphone. Body abandoned to the elements, slight, almost imperceptible, deprived of voice or action, pure mechanism of sensitive observation.
'Home Cinema' breaks the gaze by shifting the places that our bodies usually occupy. Creating a strange and violent situation, which is also fascinating and sinister, we seek to glimpse certain hidden areas in the standard construction of our subjectivity.
This laboratory proposes sharing and questioning procedures, ideas and problems of the 'Home Cinema' performance to share the experience of thinking, producing, setting in motion and doing the performance.
