Seen from the Outside

25 min
With Vu de lextérieur Lucile Desamory reflects on the possibilities of a distant view from inside ones own culture The inside is Belgium and its cultural codes Consisting of a white box with a hidden entrance in the screen only visible in some moments while the video is running the installation creates a situation where inside and outside are obscured The projection shows parts of the feature film Télé Réalité directed by Desamory Glodie Mubikay and Gustave Fundi Three Congolese women are discussing a reality TV show they plan to produce in Belgium during carnival When visitors enter the video screen they find themselves in a secret chamber with a surveillance monitor On it strange characters evolve in the house where the brotherhood of the Blancs Moussis of Stavelot make and store tons and tons of confetti
