One head too many

Résumé

Dissected into five colours in motion? all at once skin, gesture, word, voice? this first trilingual monograph by Elise Florenty and Marcel Türkowsky focuses on five film-projects investigating different layers of consciousness and power relations that blur the modern boundaries between the animate and the inanimate, the verbal and the non-verbal, the dream and the awake state. Each project unfolds minor situations in marginal zones? from Mississippi to the Aegean Sea, Brazil to Japan and Eastern Ukraine where the human and the nonhuman? an imaginary river, an amazonian parrot, a speaking cactus plant or cannibal electrons? often meet to bring back "social-utopic" experiments and the part of future that seems to have been buried with them.00Exhibition: Grimmuseum, Berlin, Germany (04.02.?18.03-2017).
