| Fire Is Always the Same is a montage of video footage retrieved by the artists online that capture moments of social unrest in the last decades. From Timisoara’s uprising in 1989 to the current Hong Kong protests, the work studies the dynamics of crowds drawing parallels with the image of fire. This analogy and work’s title reference Elias Canetti who identifies in the crowd the contagious, destructive and transformative power of fire. Anca Rujoiu |
