Four for See Beauties

Overview

The video shows women nurturing each other and a baby. We see fish and other marine creatures, a sauna, the autumn sea – contrasts of heat and cold. The gallery were it is screened is heated to resemble human body temperature. Prouvost’s piece harks back to the pre-linguistic beginnings of human life, a time of metamorphosis, when touch and sound are primary. How would it feel to be a baby again? Or to swim in the sea like a fish? The artist reminds us of our watery origins: the slender-tailed sperm evolves into a fish-like embryo and finally into a human infant.
