Nicos Synnos' artwork is shown through video surveillance of du Morier's room, both as a confession of our voyeuristic disposition vis-à-vis the lives of others, but also as a reminder of the fact that the present, the dominant flowing time, is constantly and interactively projected onto a quest and domestication of the past. Synnos uses fragments of photographs and animation experiments to construct fictional images in a video. By placing the action on the ongoing cinematic present, the intertwines the fictional with the historical to construct a multi-temporal visual "reality". | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/25757 | Rights: | Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International | Type: | Film | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology |
