Retouches features a series of repeated visual cycles, an animation painted on celluloid that examines transformation in the world around us. Georges Schwizgebel tries to grasp the ungraspable - movement itself - by playing with notions of perception and representation, changing the balance of shapes for amazing metamorphoses. He turns someone going upstairs into a hurdler and hair being brushed into a windswept forest; as for a tennis game, the ball remains motionless and the court whirls spectacularly around it. Finally the film calms down into an image of a sleeping woman perhaps dreaming of the very images we ourselves have just observed.Retouches is the virtuoso dream of a visual acrobat. |
