Kill me twice, dear friend, dear enemy (14 min)
The first installation of Tornadoes of My Heart is titled Kill me twice, dear friend, dear enemy.
This installation is composed by two large video projections placed side by side on the same wall. This double projection presents two boys of seventeen years old, two friends gone for a walk in the middle of nowhere. They are like two blood brothers, and we enter in their violent intimacy, the particularity of their relationship.
The videos draw their portraits, showing the power of their bounds and secret expectations. Edited according a elaborate system of loops and axed around the main sequence of images showing a tornado, this installation places the viewer directly in the heart of this « love/hate » relationship, deep inside this exclusive friendship at the specific moment where the two teenagers’ lives is about change forever, where through death the two of them will become one and unique body.
