not here anymore is a project based on found footage materials that
intends to reflect on sexual and erotic enjoyment as a repetitive and
unproductive moment located on the limit between pleasure and the
tension toward death.
The people in the videos, accompanied by an increasingly frenetic
and looped sound, are filmed on a roller coaster, in a moment on the
edge between enjoyment, suffering, and loss of control.
These images are combined with ambiguously sexual hints and
symbolic sequences depicting jellyfish stranded or dying due to
their natural impossibility of moving in space. The potential for
immortality that distinguishes them, given by the stem cells that
compose them and which have the power to regenerate infinitely,
also appears here as an impossible tension.
