Mémoire d'un vol - Installation - 2018
presented as part of the exhibition Panorama 20
Breeze, volcano, dream. Image, substance, wandering. Limes, mixed earth, cut lines, debris, humus, flows, colours, clouds, breakthroughs. Our memory is an immense body with shifting forms. A genuine machine-material in which our feelings are constructed, it is that inner landscape, that architecture in which sensation flees, deep within.
The installation Mémoire d’un vol invites us to question movement, down to its very traces. Inseparable from the creative process that constitutes it – a live performance leaving a photographic trace on the ground – the work is a laboratory open to the sky. The exhibition space here is a space of experimentation and sedimentation. The light score identically reproduces the trajectory of the body that has moved during the performance. What seems immutable starts moving again, through light and through the viewer’s gaze.
Fluid, infinite, the image freezes nothing. It is an uncentred point, a change of state, a shift, a taking flight towards the freedom to be oneself, in the world.
Vasil Tasevski
After founding the National Troop of Circus Performers of Macedonia and having worked in the Balkans, Vasil came to France to find out about contemporary circus. With Marion Collé and Matthieu Gary he founded Collectif Porte27. Passionate about photography, Vasil Tasevski mixes different media and artistic mediums: photography, installation, video, performance and circus arts. Experimentation occupies an important position in his research. Wandering, nostalgia and childhood are recurrent themes in his work.
