FEVER DREAM (23’’, 2025)
video, text, photographs, posters
The film Fever Dream consists of five parts. Each part addresses the destabilizing feeling of encountering a ghost – something that once was and returns uninvited – and how that can derail our sense of self. Jacques Derrida, the influential Algerian-born French intellectual, speaks of a haunt as something that at once is and is not: unfixable in language, its identi- ty is fluid. The geopolitical reality of East- ern Europe shows that ghosts are not easy to live with. What is an “in-between state” and what are the contradictions that arise from it?
Posters for the film were designed by Stefans Pavlovskis.
