"An invitation to simultaneously and collectively expose ourselves to a healing ray of sounds and images. From black to white thought the spectrum of light." — Jorge Suárez-Quiñones Rivas

It's 0 o’clock. For every step I take forward, I have to take one step back. Is it here and there? Is there no B-door? I can't hear you anymore, the phone cords are/are not stressed. Attention! There may be one hidden behind another. 12am or 12pm? There's too much noise on the line. The signifier? Should I fill it up for you a little more? Zoom in, I enter the empty frame: now I can go anywhere.

The inner rhythm of non-living and living structures in between night and day An acknowledgement of the intimate speaking of anything Self-sufficient beings and machines simultaneously working on the threshold, facing each other —and, in the meantime, you gradually become part of that autonomous system— an expansion of our own communication systems a romantic landscape, where everything is on the same level, and the two ends of the arrow merge into a single point Overstay, nightstay, overnight A to-and-fro across the thinnest space-time slice possible The diagonal bridgeway from the mirror room to the stage on the verge… on the verge of… Trapped before forever Farewell, hello! Music by Jessica Moss. Backed by WIELS Contemporary Art Center, Canal 180, Portugal, gnration, Culturgest.

An exploration of how violence is uniquely confronted in films by Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet: By abandoning the screen.

Film performance involving one super-8 projector and three 16mm projectors screening choreographically the four films that compose up to date the series Marcel !, produced from 2021 to 2025 between Brussels and Madrid. This project takes as its point of departure the exhibition Poèmes industriels, lettres ouvertes (WIELS Contemporary Art Center, Brussels, 2021-2022), devoted to Marcel Broodthaers’ Industrial Poems (1968-1972).

The majestic mountain scenery of the town of Ubuyama-mura in southern Japan serves as the setting for this exploration of an inexhaustible cultural legacy. With the arrival of summer, Masae goes house to house collecting traditional songs in a search for poems dating back over one thousand years.
