presents a previously unpublished series by Marina Gadonneix who, over
years of research, has brought together a collection of singular images:
blue or green overlays, used as neutral backgrounds for special effects
in cinema and on television. Images between abstraction and figuration,
place and non-place, fullness and emptiness, these landscapes, once
subtracted from their matrix, may only be considered as images in their
abstract representation. And these are indeed landscapes in the
accompanying fiction, Blackout, a text written for the series of images
by Marcelline Delbecq. Between fiction and reality, real landscapes and
mental landscapes, vision and drifting, the text, in its written form as
well as in its form as a soundscript, may either add to or take away
from the images, whose visual impact appeals to what’s happening off
screen as well as to what is beyond consciousness“ (RVB Books). – A very
good copy.
