Le partage (sharing)

The title, Le Partage, is borrowed from “Le partage du sensible” (Jacques Ranciere , 2000), where the French philosopher develops an aesthetic idea of ​​the policy under which is organized the partition of the sensitive, the ways that each time period has to see, hear, perceive, name …

Just as power relations produce aesthetic forms, cultural expressions are opposite ways of seeing, doing, that represent and symbolize power and counterpower. All aesthetic act, while setting experience for their potential to produce ways of seeing, feeling, if any, is therefore political.

To suggest to re-link thinkability and visuality, these series of videos and static sequences of images looking to be read as a visual essay about the distribution of the visible – which is what is shown, what is displayed… or, at the same, who speaks, who has the floor, what is perceived as a language, licensed, charged with meaning and what as mere noise… who looks and what is regarded: in what way the look draws bodies in their place in the world.
