Director Statement

Nobody wants to look beyond what the television projects, so in order to understand how some artists find transcendence in the images they create that rebel from their natural states, like those common places that submerge themselves in the routines we consciously create to fit into the everyday, like the streets we inhabit with the speed of moving from one fixed point to another fixed point, separating grey from black, simulating a work by Rothko, it is essential to penetrate the foundation of that artist's work in order to deal with the simple universe of his creation, as happens in the sad and silent revolution of Antoine Carver's work. Many have tried at different times and opportunities to explain why the pause, the slowness, the delirium of the precarious, has strongly raised the spirit of creators of the stature of Pasolini, Tarr, Tarkovski, Lopouchanski, without arriving at a stereotype that personifies or mystifies the certain belief of being possessed, dominated by creative realism.
