With BAT, I address various processes of camouflage, transformation and disappearance. I juxtapose a boxer as a counterpoint to myself. He embodies intensity, efficiency, concentration and power opposite me, chaotic and fragmented. BAT is a harsh movement of our generation. A movement that unfolds like a ritual. Energy that turns to violence, the same as we find in our daily lives.
After the triptych Fly Girl / Yaksu Exit Number 9 / Voice Over, BAT features a project that both serves as its synthetic continuation and its contradiction in terms. After three works in which the main character is extrovert, energetic and imposing, I have sought to implicitly expose myself, exploring the concept of identity through anonymity.
