Part of Sandrine Llouquet´s solo exhibition "Chapter 4: Days and Nights of Revolving Joy", at Galerie Quynh, feb 2019 "Days and Nights of Revolving Joy" 2019 single channel video with sound 35’ 13” "Faithful to Llouquet’s idea of syncretism, "Days and Nights of Revolving Joy" is a celebration of various sources from the cult of Isis to Catholic mass to profane celebrations. The mysterious ceremony involves various rituals including dancing, a reading in Esperanto of Night the First (the first chapter of "The Four Zoas", an unfinished book of mythic poems by William Blake,), and an initiation rite. Rather than attempting to understand the content with our rational mind, the artist proposes to experience it and grasp it on another level of consciousness."
