It is Unmentionable, 2017
video
10 min
Edition 1/5 + 2 AP
The work explores the borders of filmic and off screen space. Travelling along folds in time, space and thought, the spectator gradually looses all sense of direction and continuity. With cut-outs from Lady Windermere's Fan (1925) - a silent film directed by Ernst Lubitsch, which was based on Oscar Wilde's play Lady Windermere's Fan (1893) - and quotes from the novel The Third Policeman (1967) by Flann O'Brien and Narration in the Fiction Film (1987) by David Bordwell. 'It is unmentionable, I said. It is unmentionable, I said. It is unmentionable.'
