Description :
A line of white shirts is hung up across a dark space
(the exhibition space) at eyes level, so as to simulate a mise-en-scene
of an execution.
A number of video projectors are set in front of the shirts so their
projections cover the shirts area. \par The video is edited in very
short sequences (TV materials), with amplified loud sound, so to produce
a gunshot-like effect. The sequences are reduced on small scales taking
small parts at different locations of the projection area (so that
it seems that the shirts have a heart, stomach, chest) or the wall
behind. In this way the shirts are visible only in the short moments
of the light sequences (the exact moment of the execution).
The installation deals with the violence of the mass media.
When the Mass media project their visions the individual is dead.
The general formula of communication theory transmitter-message-receiver
is so much like executor-bullet-victim.
