interview with a chair
​​2019

video installation for 1 screen
17m25s (loop)
full HD – color – stereo
The artist and an empty chair discuss current issues of art and art making. In this conversation, however, it’s not speech but silence the protagonist. The neutral element of the chair in the space of an interview frustrates all expectations of subjective investigation from this mode of inquiry. Instead, by not participating in the binaries that structure dialectics, the dialogue challenges the common ground expected of a conversation. Speech does not pass from one speaker to another, but rather, speech and silence alternate sequentially .

​Concept & Realization: Daniel Cabral
