From Body To Cosmos

Da Corpo A Cosmo

Overview

This" theory of the eye "is clarified even more in From body to cosmos of 1994. The film begins with a flight of fast clouds in the sky, with their elusive shapes, which capture and make the smoke of Etna cloud, like if heaven and earth were caught in a single, unstoppable flight. But here it is Mazzoleni's own eye, which emerges several times, that disrupts the visible. Inside and outside are mixed: bodies, totemic and vegetable masks. Reality decomposes, reveals its hidden colors, those that are hidden in the heart of things at the time of creation, according to a myth of Lurian Kabbalah. Clouds, a meadow blown by the wind, the moving shadow of a room: everything escapes again, elusive. But the eye of the machine, but the eye behind the machine, also catches a naked and unarmed eye that appears among things: the seer is also what he sees. I is another. I is also a thing among things.
