Eerie

A suspended cable car serves as the backdrop for a meeting between two lovers, performed by Sarah Turner and Helena Bullivant. Exchanged gazes, intertwined hands, a few dance steps, a kiss… while the landscape of Mount Pilatus rushes by at vertiginous speed, set to the rhythm of the cable car’s hum, which resonates like a projector, lighting up these images in an infinite game of mirrors.

Lahire crafted the image through a hands-on approach – impulsive, yet guided by a predefined plan. By exploring superimposition both in the camera and on the optical printer, and combining images from different footage and formats, Eerie captures that furtive encounter in a piece that evokes the mystery of its title and stands as one of the few images from an unfinished project titled Necropolis.

There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
