A dead lizard is toyed with; unreal, blue fingers run themselves through strands of hair… with each image of a new, enigmatic action, the soundtrack changes, ranging from stately Philip Glass to bells and chants. Kytösalmi-Buhl, a pioneer of Finnish video art, proposes to us an unusual dance choreography that goes beyond full human bodies and into a micro-universe of fragmented parts, prostheses and relational aesthetics.
