My Nights 2014: video for one screen, full HD, colours, sound stereo, 5’37 loop

Team: Ilan Cohen, Guillaume Faure, Guillaume Mazloum, Antoni Hadzijanev, Prudence Richard

In front of the artist’s face, almost concealing it, black birds loom up. The two worlds do not connect. They remain distinct entities sharing one space-time, but without a common purpose nor the same will to live. My Nights creates a recurring and unending affliction. There is no option but to come to terms with this affliction, even if the longing is there to surrender, to sink, at last, in a soothing and remedial sleep, despite the threat of nightmares.
– Paul Ardenne
