Video and audio projection in loop
Variable dimensions
Durata: 3’ 30’’


This work develops from the juxtaposition of found online materials, both characterized by different origins and linguistic registers.The video of an American man, committed to record himself and his tattoos with a GoPro, is accompanied by contrast by the audio of an interview to an archeologist of the Egypt Museum of Boston. The audio, full of practical examples, describes the purpose and the functioning of the Egyptian spiritual ideology and the way they had to prepare themselves for death.
