Jean De Lacoste

A Place

Art vidéo | dv | couleur | 16:6 | Belgique | 2008

"A Place" is a video triptych that depicts a singular apprehension of familiar interior and exterior spaces, brought together by various lines of flight. Three physical and mental spaces, inhabited by the affective presence of those who cross them or occupy them, follow one another, responding and canceling each other out.

Jean De Lacoste, born March 27, 1984; Belgian video artist and musician; graduated in 2009 from the E.R.G., Brussels and lives and works in Brussels. His work is a reflection on the phenomenological apprehension of inhabited, familiar places (related to souvenirs, family, anecdotes) and of non-places who don?t really belong to anyone, places we go through, that can even liberate us. This notion of « affect » is translated rather suggestively and distantly through editing image and sound.
