Pipilotti at the Moma

without comments


Pipilotti Rist is an artist that I have admired since I first saw her video at school in Colombia, some 10 years ago. It was an embedded video in the floor and since then I’ve been one of her followers. I love her compromise with women and the voice she’s giving us. This is why I was speechless when I saw her exhibition. It was like a dream. The environment of the place was friendly, it calls on you to stay, lay down and close your eyes. The music was a six-minute loop of body sounds combined with electronics. The installation has 4 projectors that fill the three walls of the entrance of The Museum of Modern Art . In the middle is a round sofa that invites people to sit and interact with the piece from different points of view. The layering of the video is just incredible, pink, red, blue, flowers, worms, pigs, blood, are the perfect elements for a wonderful piece of art
