Feeling blue
Feeling blue (Partir) is inspired by the death of my sister Corinne.
This videopoem is about the loss of a loved one and the illusion of escaping the pain by going away. It’s the headlong rush to try to forget what we always carry within ourselves. No one can leave memories and prevent the blues. The obsessive search for the lost one acts like a litany in our mind. The dark is searching for colors, although only one gets our attention : the blue, the blue of her eyes, the blues we feel tinting everything around in one tone. This litany is obsessive but also comforting as it is the expression of the filial connection that survives.
