An experimental short on artistic creativity, the complex connections between teacher and student, and the countless communications issues among people. Communicating Vessels opens with a simple and subtly evocative sentence: “I first met E. when she attended my introductory film course.” By turns video art, performance and testimonial, the narrative presents a dialogue – at times constructive, at others destructive – between two passionate artists who never stop questioning the line between private life and creativity. “The smallest gesture can be invested with political potential,” the narrator reminds us. A brilliant reflection on conceptual art and the transmission of knowledge and thought, this unique essay blurs lines as a way to bring us into the conversation. (Bruno Dequen)
