Les Fouets, 2024
Objects and accompanying video


In Les Fouets I recall an occasion from my childhood: spending time at various playgrounds in my hometown, there was always the possibility of an unfavorable encounter. Boys of our age had a trick: they would pluck nettle bushes and collect stinging «bouquets», wrapping the stems in plastic bags. After that they would chase us girls. And we had to run away in terror, saving our lives, because there was little that could compare to such a source of strength.
