The installation consists of a 1:1 wooden reproduction of a bench and a video on a tablet. The video, filmed with a cellphone and a selfie stick, draws a choreography around the original bench in a public square. The resulting vision is multifocal, without defining any horizon line nor gravity point and establishes a modest but new universe of physical relations with the object. Meanwhile, a person appears rehearsing gestures and postures around the bench and speaking about different kinds of gazes (the nostalgic, the innovative and the speculative one).
