La fête des suicides [The suicides party]

Animation, black and white, 2"09, 2015

« La fête des suicides » finds its origin in the « Voyage de G. Mastorna », script by Federico Fellini never brought to the screen and around which the project of collective exhibitions « Manifestement sans fin » was built. This animated sequence is a cinematic fantasy, a desire to breathe a plastic interpretation into a work that lacked it. The animation was approached as the possibility of setting in motion the vision of this fall, a source of joy and fulfillment, which these four little words were able to germinate before the very reading of the script. Performed image by image and looped, this sequence is brought, in the long term, to expand until forming a complete scene.
