BODYSCREEN

2009
video performance
Meridian Charnivtsi Festival, Ukraine / Performance Platform Lublin, Poland

The screen phenomenon and the phenomenon of projection hyperreality are explored in this video-performance. 

The performer's image, in a pre-prepared video, is projected onto the performer's body. The body becomes a living screen, the real and the virtual intermingle. The illusion of the projection displaces the real presence of the performer then reveals its disembodied nature again. In the sound layer, we hear the voice of the performer reading the poem along with the sounds of the urban environment.
