A megaphone built into
the short end of a protruding v-shaped mirror appears as a
multi-petalled flower in Narcissus Echoes. When drawing close,
one witnesses a remorseful confessor - the artist - who has gone
through numerous répétitions (repetitive interrogations,
torture and theatrical rehearsals) only to become another
descendent, a new echolalic agent of the ideology of the System.
He speaks within a cluster of “truths”, revealed to him under
mental and physical abuse in prison. In solitude - where no
“alien” thoughts could penetrate - the artist confesses his
socio-political, sexual and cultural subversive sins. |
