20 May Pablo Lopez Jordan
Pablo López Jordán inquires in the life and artwork of Pasolini, the source of inspiration for his new film work.
Using Pasolini’s unfinished book: “Petrol” as a starting point, Pablo creates a set of scenes which depict the most relevant elements of Pasolini’s work. The light as the principle of photography and a symbol of sacredness, the poetry as a political weapon and the image as a writing.
Pablo uses a visual feature of the petrol, its iridescence, being a metaphor for the process of research in general, which is understood as the decomposition of the analyzed object.
Pablo creates an experimental film which stands as a tribute to Pasolini expressed through the poetry of new images and sound atmospheres.
For the Open Studios he presents some of the visual experiments inspired in “Petróleo”, interweaved in the narrative of the film as an illusion, as stars in a dark night, as viscid shines which remind us of a lugubrious past and warns us about a black future.
