Voyage en Uchronie

matali crasset

This book-object follow-up to an eponymous film
made in 2013 by the artists, is built around the
staging of props including: colored capes, reflectors,
created by crasset and others such as ceramic objects,
airplane, sardine stand created by Susin and Rublow.
These elements are the object of rituals that emerge
when a primitive culture comes into contact with
more technologically advanced civilizations. The
edition is presented in a “black box” metal case,
containing documents and exhibits used in the
making of the film, as well as photographs from the
film and an original prop created by Matali Crasset,
used during the filming.
