“Do you want to see the most beautiful thing I ever filmed? It was one of those days when it’s a
minute away from snowing. And there’s this electricity in the air, you can almost hear it, right?
And this bag was just… dancing with me … like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen
minutes. That’s the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things, and this incredibly
benevolent force that wanted me to know there was no reason to be afraid. Ever. Video is a
poor excuse, I know. But it helps me remember … I need to remember…
Sometimes there’s so much beauty in the world … I feel like I can’t take it… and my heart is just
going to cave in.”
From the movie „American Beauty“ (1999).
Empty. Quiet. Beautifull.
This piece is a choreography of matter and element. Like a bag flying in the wind that makes
you think of beautiful things, it enchants and draws you in. It’s strange that trash can be
beautiful. Sometimes, apparently, we have no other choice but to try to rediscover something
beautiful in things that have already served their original purpose.
