Fred L’Epee - filmmaker - artist statement
Fred L’Epee
Filmmaker
Artist
Statement
“In
my personal path as artist, I always see our being as an eternal procession. We
belong to the process of the geometry of universe. Abstraction with forms and
indefinite lines towards an ultimately unknown destination. The narrative of
human being. As a post- atomic myth or pre-war blues. We always choose the
sense of belonging and farewell.
We belong of our movements which are expansion of our
cycles. The structure of our human geometry. Time is the rotation of our
existence.
As well the distance is a perpetual geometry which
controlling our way of life, the perception of our cogitation. In response, we
create the movement. Through this movement, we use the memory into our psycho-
affective system in the purpose to imagine our freedom, our cries, our drifts,
our social struggles. In exile, all we are. We belong to this path. And we use
it as an ultimate form of being. The Ideal is definitely established.
This
movement is related to the circulation of our emotional system. Through this,
here is the path of our metamorphosis. Without this; world is nothing.”

Algorithm modulus of Image by Fred L’Epee
Algorithm modulus of Image
Aspect Concept Mediation
The experimental visual art is currently a cultural
necessity in the sociological concept of our being. This is an emotional matrix
as well as in our need for identity in parallel to our contemporary expression.
In addition to its form and its content,
experimental visual art is an alternative tool that allows common
access
and who redefined the archaic laws of an elitist cinema. Touching the image
becomes perception, animation, composition of the emotional decomposition.
Visual art also allows to create neo-movements such as physical, mental, psychological; and metaphysical.
Attractiveness Interactivity
Expressiveness
It is a transdisciplinary medium conveying
our emotions by its multi-disciplinary forms and opening
important gates in our current culture.
Its design deliberating the simultaneous and spontaneous perspectives in
perfectly consistent with our algorithm lifestyle.
The image is an immutable human ressource. In its generality, Visual
experimentation is a transposition which alterates into an evolutive
abstraction. The creation and its renaissance. Genesis. Art evolving, enables us to evolve in a
total parallel. Perpetual oxygenation for our mind and our body.
In this impossible world, experimental
visual arts allows us the possibility. The image is a force field whose
experimental uses have no gravity. Paradox for a world
order. The cause of a vital need of a necessity for a language and common
access. Currently, this is what we seek.
Social interaction; and cultural connectivity are key words. Here is the
art mediator.
‘The Image of the awake consciousness’.

His legs wobbled under him
It's happening to me
again.
The soft-drink stand
fell into bits. Molecules. He saw the molecules,
colorless, without
qualities, that made it up. Then he saw through, into the space
beyond it; he saw the
hill behind, the trees and sky. He saw the soft-drink stand
go out of existence,
along with the counter man, the cash register, the big
dispenser of orange
drink, the taps for Coke and root beer, the ice-chests of
bottles, the hot dog
broiler, the jars of mustard, the shelves of cones, the row of
heavy round metal lids
under which were the different ice creams.
In its place was a slip
of paper. He reached out his hand and took hold of
the slip of paper. On it
was printing, block letters.
SOFT-DRINK STAND
Turning away, he
unsteadily walked back, past children playing, past the
benches and the old
people. As he walked he put his hand into his coat pocket
and found the metal box
he kept there.
He halted, opened the
box, looked down at the slips of paper already in it.
Then he added the new
one.
Six in all. Six times.
His legs wobbled under
him and on his face particles of cold seemed to
form. Ice slid down into
his collar, past his green knit tie.
He made his way down the
slope, to Junie.

Anti-Camouflage
Words Fall - a short video by Lars Buchardt, 2012
Inspired by Politics and the English Language, George Orwell, 1946l
The Synthetic Quality
Still (tegning/drawing) From the video The Synthetic Quality |
The Synthetic Quality
The work is made entirely from still images.
It deals with the phenomenon of Verfremdung and demonstrates principles
of “set-ups”; numerous images and sequences are visualisations of a kind of scene
changing and displacements in both time and space – as when colours change by means
of a trick, theatrical illusion, or sleight of hand, or, for instance, when the sky above a hill
suddenly turns black as if a set piece was removed by an invisible stage hand. The
soundtrack plays a part in all this, certain sounds are completely out of synch or
seemingly arbitrary; the sound of water, for instance, a repeated motif, is without
obvious logical connection to the sequence of images. There are also sounds that
seem to come from behind the set such as the sound of keys locking a door and footsteps
down a stairway; maybe these sounds are made by a scene technician locking the place up and
going down the stairs - and home.
The video deals not only with itself but also with the manipulative and fake methods that we are
all presented with and subjected to in almost all visual narratives in mainstream culture in which
all elements, no matter how alien they are to one another, are brought together in a synthesis
that, on the face of it, is persuasive and “true”.
Lars Buchardt, 2013.
