View of the exhibition “Para Museum” at Musée des beaux-arts Palais Fesch, Ajaccio (France), 2016 Video projection : "Elysée", 2016, 35 mm film, looped, 16 min 29 sec A film shot in the Salon Doré of the Elysée Palace, the personal office of the President of the French Republic. Stressing the idea of a continuity of power, which exists above and beyond its incarnation by an individual, the film scans over the royal gildings and everyday life details of the State’s operational center.
