Cloud Chasers

2016 • Directed by

Arthur Harel

This film wishes to be a surprising and unexpected response to a commission by Lafayette Anticipation - the Galeries Lafayette Foundation, as it rehabilitates its building. Throughout the exploration of smoke sculptures created by cloud chasers, (LA)HORDE seeks to give shape to a latent moment within the Foundation’s transition. The smoke occupies the space with a volatile and magical aesthetic, exploring its potential to welcome artworks and artistic projects in development. It bears witness to a space in mutation, whose shapes are yet to be defined.
