“TOMBEAU”
Un video di Third Eye Factory

In un vecchio cimitero, le tombe diventano tutt’uno con la natura. Lapidi sono coperte da vegetazione, i nomi vengono nascosti e diventano ricordi che solo la terra può leggere.
Nel video una lapide viene liberata dalle foglie e rivela l’iscrizione “Unsere Lieselotte” – la nostra Lieselotte. Una memoria viene alla luce, il calore dell’affetto, le lacrime per una perdita. Foglie crescono e coprono di nuovo, i ricordi sono sepolti ma la vita va avanti per sempre.

“Free the Fishes!”
Film of an art-action performed by the Third Eye Factory

Third Eye Factory was very shocked to discover that nowadays you can buy fishes in on-line stores! Whether the people use them to eat, or as ornamental fish in garden ponds: we think it is a great injustice and want the animals rather be swimming in the open water. That’s why we bought two nice carp fishes online, and freed them into the river in front of our home. We recorded this whole action on video.

Ants are great transport artists. They often carry objects that are many times larger and heavier than themselves. Food pieces are often carried by several ants together. “The Logic of Logistics in the Ant’s World” presents a look at this rational transportation system, and confronts it with the transport in the human world. The road signs are then absurd, and the supply of things that you do not need seems ridiculous: the ants are always purposeful and organized, and can not be seduced by useless brightly colored objects, which they put quickly and efficiently aside to clear the way to keep on the precious crumbs.
