The Myth(s) Of Orpheus

The Myth(s) Of Orpheus | The story of Orpheus descending to the land of the dead in search of its lover is told through a series of pieces. Each piece makes a different approach to the concepts of this story —Loss, Death, Wish, Love, Creation— in a different image medium, but renouncing to the creation of images in favor of text and found footage. These are obsolete image mediums —A moviola, CRT monitors, a View-Master—, doing also a kind of archeology on the media we have been using throughout history to tell stories and how these stories survive by being told over and over until turning into ghosts, or archives. These obsolete artifacts become mystical fortune-tellers and wish-granters, warning and giving instructions to the visitors who are approaching into the land of the dead.
