RHYTHM
​2023
​HD video, 10'21''

​Rhythm is filmed in one of the symbolic buildings of Communist Romania. 
Using the building's late modernist architectural and decorative elements, I performed a series of gestures based on their geometry. The rhythm created by the animation of these postures becomes a video frieze that, as in classical architecture, depicts imagined scenes from recent history.
