SINOO THE SLEEP
FRANCE, 1992, 00:03:05
Production : CELLIER Christophe, CRRAV (Région Nord/Pas-de-Calais)
Genre : Video art
Keyword : Ethnology, History, Introspection, Inheritance
Summary :
Sinôo is a word that has a double meaning. In Peul language, it means both sleep and the infant's death. This work develops along two streams : SHELLEY's "Song of the Spirits" and an inventory of the reserve collection of the Museum of Natural History of Lille, in the North of France. This museum characteristically represents colonial France's idea of a museum. The treasures that we stole from Africa are covering in dust in the "attics of our memory".
