24 second HD video loop. Silent.

During this quick loop, two French words ALORS/DEHORS briefly appear.
These can be translated as SO/GET OUT SO?/LEAVE THEN/OUTSIDE or any combination of those same words.
The gesture suggests the words as much as the words might define the gesture, simultaneously inviting a viewer into the scene and rejecting her/him from it.

The gestures are choreographed to music that cannot be heard and the spectator is left to imagine what it could be.
I was thinking about how music can color experience and how the music-player creates inherently private experiences.

The lighting and the use of text are nods to French new wave film-maker Jean-Luc Godard, in particular his film A Woman is a Woman, which explores tensions and power struggles in a romantic relationship.
