Inconsolable

Director Michel Pavlou

The reflections on the glass sliding doors under the incessant passage of the crowd, compose the visual flow of the video
The camera focuses on the hands whose gestures unroll a silent dialogue by signs with the audience.
Colors, shapes and textures echo N.H.Mak’s narration, interwining with the poem’s mental imagery.

Michel Pavlou was born in Greece in 1960, and studied economics at Louis Pasteur University, Strasbourg and Visual Arts at Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts de Nancy, France. He is a founding member of Atopia, an artist’s initiative based in Oslo, dedicated to the research on experimental film & video art.
