Vincent Grenier: ‘An introspective and personal piece that speaks of apparently vague but relevant items such as: being away from home, time/space travel, in-between stages/state, bridges, merging, mirrors, skeletons, presence/lack thereof, humour of the ordinary, being plugged-in, contained, defined, homing. Capture attempts to look at the evidence, to unravel a puzzling mystery.’
