AD LIBITUM in association with Mathias Domahidy, 2017 > ....

During a few minutes of footage, small everyday events are filmed. In post-production, a voice-over is added to these images. The project, made in association with Mathias Domahidy, gives the illusion of a banal situation that would have been staged.

The work confronts reality with our capacity for interpretation. It is grafted onto a local territory and amplifies the most minute gestures. It is designed to be shown in the very place where the images were taken.
