[…] I followed the butterfly until the waterfall, 2025
Video Installation
Sometimes nature is so beautiful, that it looks like a videogame. You follow the butterfly until the waterfall and experience a moment of singular presence. Sometimes you get so in love with it, that you try to replicate it, you have followed the butterfly and now you are not able to let it go and you try to capture it alive. You may be tempted then to honour that moment of presence by trying to reproduce or represent it, you may try to do it with more advanced techniques. You become a perfectionist, trying to capture the butterfly isn't fun for me anymore.
But there are other people, that enjoy playing at capturing the butterfly. Hunters that find it right to honour the butterfly while chasing it, people that don't believe that life finishes with the last heartbeat. How will the last heartbeat of the universe sound like?
