Triennale Centre Pompidou
We are the time. We are the famous
An installation that brings visitors into the action. It explores two ways of being portrayed in a time span: the fixed photo image or a filmed sequence. Visitors interact in real time with two images of themselves: the first, in slow motion, confuses our perception of time, while the other fragments time into a succession of stills. On one wall, visitors must stand still to see their image, while on the other they have to keep moving to generate a sequence. The title is taken from J.L. Borges's poem: "We are the time. We are the famous".
