Corpus Charta
2014
Video Animation 3’21’’
Performance, Installation
The work consists of 9 objects - sheets by the author hand-printed graphics, transformed into boutique clothes. Each garment performs playfully in several combinations. The performance in front of the camera is entitled Second-Hand Boutique. The overall work is part of the Body and Work cycle, and is presented as an installation of objects-clothes, a collection of black and white photographs of the performance and video animation on a monitor.
The Corpus Charta concept develops, on the one hand, the idea of the word as a sign concept, which defines - exposes or enslaves us, and, on the other, the idea of the garment that dresses us - it is staged or concealed - as a visual sign. The objects represented are paper bodies that can be seen as clothing. They start from the word, send to the body and become independent objects.
