Chameleon, 2018

Single-Channel HD video, color & sound, 7’36’’


The “flag paint” of the previous project becomes the decoration for the show “Chameleon” where the magician-politician mimics hollow, purely gestural political speeches. This choreographic debate is punctuated sometimes by a few tricks of clumsy magic. The twin assistants move symmetrically. They tear a “ green background”， which is then used to inlay fragments of archives and reality in this fictional work. The chameleon constantly alters the mask and posture to the rhythm of the images.
