Hotel Red Shoes(2013)
This first video work in collaboration with my sister Lisa Spilliaert is about a double transition. On the one hand, the cultural reorientation from Japan to Belgium and, on the other hand, the transition from child to adolescent, with reference to the advent of sexual awareness. The emotional intencity of leaving a certain place or state is transcended by the ritual gestures of singing, cutting and burning.
