À LA RECHERCHE DES AMAZONES

by Marcelle THIRACHE
1986 / Super 8 / color / silent / 1 screen / 6' 00




- Life as abolition of time
- Sensation of a present that goes back to thousands of years
- Recovering my past as a woman
- Work on the discovery of a memory and the figures of this memory (photos of greek sculptures : Amazons fighting, godesses)
- Anamorphosis through water to relive these images of stone, give them relief and movement
- Presence of real elements (statuettes that I modeled, fabric) to create a confrontation between what exist as a form and what is only an image of (ambiguity of matter and ambiguity of time)
- Play with the light and the speed (acceleration, slow motion)
