EMULSION LIFTING or
EMULSIONG GRAFTING

I have always felt from nowhere, I do not feel French or Algerian. The found footage perhaps comes from there: it interests me because there is uncertainty about to what made it...
I, myself, feel like a foundling.

Each human is a heterogeneous compound of vibrant matter. If matter itself is lively, then not only is the difference between subjects and objects minimized, but the status of the shared materiality of all things is elevated.

POLITICS OF AESTHETICS

— Critical art is an art that aims to produce a new perception of the world, and therefore to create a commitment to its transformation. This schema, very simple in appearance, is actually the conjunction of three processes: first, the production of a sensory form of 'strangeness'; second, the development of an awareness of the reason for that strangeness and third, a mobilization of individuals as a result of that awareness.
Jacques Ranciere
— an identity instituted through a stylized repetition of acts.
— Identity is performatively constituted.
Judith Butler
