Variations around the Evidence

Hong-Gah Museum (11F., No. 166, Daye Rd., Beitou Dist., Taipei City 11268, Taiwan)

In our contemporary culture, the immediacy of information is more important than the veracity of that information itself. However, contradictorily, there are countless images that instantly monitor real-life contexts, showing, for example, evidence about health, security, weather, or traffic. The image of a medical scan or a video of a traffic accident are indisputable evidence, while the thousands of images of war and destruction seem to belong to the realm of ideological fiction, where everything can be questioned and even its evidence denied.
The audiovisual document is composed of several scenes, each corresponding to a different performative proposal, in which the moving body simultaneously describes fragility and empowerment.
This work proposes a departure from the film narrative itself, questioning its own construction at every moment, a calm reflection between immediate perception and the temporal sediment of reason.
