  • sur l’herbe

    “sur l’herbe” is a video piece that depicts the perception
    of human behavior in technological time.  A group of people
    engaged in a prolonged period of enigmatic behavior in the
    woods, while being caught by a voyeuristic surveillance.
    The nature of the actions and the relations among the
    people are at times playful, sexual and mysterious.   It is
    presented in a sped up video and audio image, giving the
    activity an animal or insect like quality.  The video never
    reveals the real event, which at the same time while it
    draws frustration from the viewer, it provides an open
    framework for interpretation.  The title and framing of the
    video reference the painting by Manet, ‘le dejeuner sur
    l’herbe’.
