About the work…
Carnets de capture is a video installation in which the notebook, the workshop and the deployment of thought are at the heart of the concerns. Between drawing, video and performative gestures, this work questions the close link between a thought and its support. The work reflects on the conditions of emergence of an image or an idea. It presents an attempt to “capture” a fleeting thought. This desire to want to “seize” is definitely a failure. To follow the multitude of ideas that pass through our heads, images are formed, transformed, but do not remain.
