Largo

Largo

2017, The Netherlands

Largo is a video artwork based on a performance, in which the artist is mechanically dragged through the Dutch urban and industrial landscape. With a steady pace, his body is moving from left to right, from empty beaches to tourist hotspots and other busy locations in the city. Surrounded by machines and complex systems, the human body is exposed as rather defenceless and vulnerable, in a world that is both hectic and indifferent.
