Elfmaids
Surround sound installation

Installation view

Loudspeakers emit a merry and soft laughter which forms a slow and seducing melody. The melody appears and disappears again and again in different modulations. A swarm of LEDs lights hangs from the ceiling in an obscure room. The lights gently glow and die out all like small sparks.

The Canadien

Extract

Filmed in a still shot, a man describes the attractive yet predatory personality of a close friend. The portrait questions the border between fiction and biography, blurring the usual landmarks of identification. As the narration progresses, the ambiguity of the relationship between the speaker and his "character" increases. Who is he really speaking about?
