Whispers of Power
When Francis turns his face to the audience, and explains the tactic he is using right now, in every single detail. That moment creates reality and makes us part of the story. We are left with the question whether this might be even closer to the actual situation than we think it is?
Whispers
Alongside a selection of film stills, turned into artworks, the story of power in all dimensions will be told.
Beside the iconic images, I am asking: what are the iconic words we carry in our collective consciousness?
Your words will complete the artworks, tingeing a story of power with uncertainty.
